The book is not what it claims to be: a palatable, novelised version of Paras' PhD thesis, rather it is many other things.
Sometimes, a mirror - reflecting back your own life and actions at different angles.
At times, a friend - sharing stories from lives of people who could very well have been in your school, your workplace, a close friend or someone in your family.
Almost always, a lighthouse - offering you a safe path to navigate through life's many obstacles.
