न्याय अन्याय ही एक छोटीशीच पण अप्रतिम कादंबरी आहे. एका बैठकीत वाचून होणारी. सर्वसामान्यांच्या आयुष्यात घडू शकणारी.
कथेचा नायक एक प्रतिष्ठित व्यक्ती असतो. एका पार्टीत एका मित्राच्या सेक्रेटरी तरंगिणी शी ओळख होते. त्यातून सुरू होतें एक विवाहबाह्य संबंधाचे नाट्य.... चाळीशी उलटल्यावर आयुष्यात एका पंचवीस सव्वीस वर्षांच्या तरंगिणी शी संबंध जुळतात. अचानक आयुष्यात आलेल्या या समाजात मान्य नसलेल्या संबंधातून पुढे एक खून होतो. कोणाचा खून होतो ? कोण करतो ? त्यातून आपला कथानायक सुटतो का ? कोर्ट कोणाला शिक्षा करते का नाही? विवाहबाह्य संबंधातून कथानायक न्याय की अन्याय या भोवऱ्यात सापडतो. तो सुटतो का जेलमध्ये जातो? तरंगिणीचे रहस्य काय असते? सगळे समजून घेण्यासाठी वाचा न्याय अन्याय!
शेवटचे पान जबरदस्त झटका देते. 😉
धन्यवाद

When the author dedicated this novel to Jeffrey Archer, I should have anticipated 'a twist in the tale'. Though I would have rated this book 5 stars irrespective of that twist.

Told in first person, this story is about a middle-aged person's extramarital affair and his involvement in a crime associated with it. The story moves along on expected lines for most of the time, but it is the sheer smoothness of the narration that keeps you hooked till the end.

Definitely recommended to every marathi reader. If you only remember Amar Vishwas, Dara Buland and Duniyadari when you think of Suhas Shirvalkar, you must give this one a try. You can then see how versatile his writings can be. After reading some detective novels during school/college days, now I am re-discovering his books and looking forward to dig deeper into the treasures of 'Suhas Shirvalkar'.

It’s Marathi adaptation of Jeffrey Archer’s short story “The Perfect Murder” from book “A Twist in the tale”.
Author already gave credit to Jeffrey Archer at the start of the book.
He successfully re-created same magic as original in this book.
माझ्या मते त्यांनी मूळ पुस्तकातल्या काही गोष्टीत सुधारणा करून त्याचे भारतीयकरण केले आहे, जे उत्तम प्रकारे जमले आहे.
शेवटचे वाक्य कथेला पूर्ण कलाटणी देते ... Hats off to Suhas Shirwalkar. Very good suspense.

Nice short story about how a man saves himself from the judicial system after committing a crime.
Wasn't bored at any point & author didn't drag the story anywhere also.

4 ⭐ from my side.
