Review :Poetic Penetrations

I am travelling for almost 3 weeks now, so unable to post any reviews or any other post. This review is being written in the time I got today. Will check it again once I am back in Goa.

Book Name: Poetic Penetrations
Author :Sanjay Chitranshi
Publisher: Frog Books
Pages: 85
MRP: Rs.95







Sanjay Chitranshi has tried to visit the side of life which normally we don’t see and the ones who see can’t narrate and bring to us.

The story is narrated in First person by the Protagonist. Born in a family with newly acquired financial status, he has a comfortable life but deep inside he wanted to live life on his own terms. A life where he is not competing with others, where every individual has own space to grow and where there is no mad rush to defeat others.
He leaves his well settled life and goes and settles into an unknown territory of Kolkatta where he tries to fructify his dream of writing. He is an artistic mind person who enjoys company of Wine and Girls and loves to experiment with both. Here he meets “Debolina”, a upscale prostitute who understands the world more than the so called intellectuals.

Sanjay has been able to develop each character nicely and story moves smoothly.
I as a person really enjoyed it because I love to read anything which tries to unearth the hidden meaning of life but as a reader too, one will enjoy the book. It requires a complete involvement while reading to actually understand the mature writing of Sanjay.

Few mistakes like the protagonist’s age (40 when the story starts and 41 after 5 years when he celebrates his birthday with “Debolina”) , I overlooked just because I read an error free (mostly) book from an Indian author after a long time.

Congratulations Sanjay Chitranshi for a great effort to jump deep into unknown territories of life.
