Snippets- some stories short is a captivating jumble of simple real-like incidents that often escape our attention. The author has delicately drawn out such instances and fictionalized them with a fluidity that keeps the reader absorbed and instinctively flipping pages from one story to the other. Each story has a different hue, flavor and context wherein those interested in variety would find engrossing variegated mix wrapped in one cover. Yet the underlying theme is constant and about human sensibilities, frailty, subtle emotions, common fears, superstitions, faith, flaws and fragility. One may get confronted with commonplace happenings that would otherwise appear innocuous but could be speaking of embedded hierarchies, prejudices and stereotypes that we often take for granted. Then, certain unbelieving instances could catch one unawares that would revive your faith in some supreme power beyond. It makes us understand how experiences mould us in time. Simultaneously, making us realize how everything at the macro level merges into oneness of being - be it be different races of mankind, different religions and castes in India, different colours of a rainbow and so on; all artificial and mortal differences eventually even out.
The language used encapsulates the essence of the moment engaging the reader in flow of its simplicity and content. This short story collection specially suits fiction lovers with busy schedules and younger multitasking generation with constricting attention span. A happy reading and a tête-à -tête with latent realities of life.
