ABORTED LOVE!

A tribute to all incomplete love stories..


I still have your letters with me. They are no more hidden in books, personal diaries, or closets. They're kept safely in my wife's locker. The ones that have descriptions of our would-be firsts and promises about the foreseen forevers, but sadly none of which could come true. I have kept them as a token of our pure love. To always remind me that somewhere you're happy with your husband, creating beautiful memories that we dreamt for ourselves. To always remember how cruel this society is! And to never forget the sacrifice of our unborn child, to keep you alive.



This is a dedication to all those love stories which suffocated in the name of customs and family honor. (Based on an actual incident that I am penning down as a novella)

Book Review OF 'PALACE OF ILLUSIONS'

Book Title: PALACE OF ILLUSIONS Author: Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni   Background:  Palace of Illusions  by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni had been one of my favorite books from the last nine years. I read it in 2011 and was magnetized by Chitra's writing skills. As per Wikipedia, Mahabharata is roughly ten times the length of the Iliad and the Odyssey combined. Hence impersonating such an epic with remarkably efficiency creates mesmerization for the author too. The Palace of Illusions takes us back to a time that is part history, partial myth, and stuffed with magical details. It has been narrated from Panchaali's perspective, the common wife of the legendary Pandavas brothers; the novel gives us a unique portrait of the world-famous Indian epic, the Mahabharata.   The Storyline: The novel begins with Draupadi narrating her restricted lifestyle at her father's palace, her father's initial rejection to accept as her daughter, her dusky complexion, her curious nature, her i...
