Quick and sharp to prick at the relevant nerves

The book hardly takes half an hour to complete but the impact it leaves is much more than that half hour. It’s a quick story with the events plucked out to make sure it targets the right nerve endings.

The book could be considered a scene or a day in which everything happens at a roller coaster ride teaching you aspects that is sheer for the purpose of questioning our sensibilities as a society and how far are we willing to go to accept ourselves and those who stand apart from the acceptable norms of the society.

The book is definitely an intense and strong subject dealt swiftly and effectively. The author is known to tackle relevant and hard hitting subjects in his works. Continuing that nature of his work, this book too brings forward some relevant questions and makes you think about our society

The language is absolutely adorning and perfect for the nature of the subject. The book flows fast and effectively by focusing on everything and sharply on what it has to convey

It’s a book that won’t hurt your time but would in turn give a lot of fodder for your thought . Well thought and conceived subject .

One needs to face reality as it is and not as you want it to be. Non-acceptance only warrants for complication which is best avoided to lead a tranquil life in this chaotic world.

Life without fear takes you through an emotional journey of the fear and pain Roni goes through till he has a reality-check that frees him forever!

This is a novella which runs less than 25 pages but carry forward a strong meaning/message. The title is very much apt for the story and the protagonist Roni. Though the story may not be relevant to India at the moment, with the changes happening across various front, people might start accepting the facts mentioned in the book sooner or later. The book talks about same sex relationship in a subtle manner. I have witnessed this first hand back in mid 2000's when one of my colleague was one. Thankfully, we all came from various background and we never treated him any different. However, this may not be the case elsewhere.



Let us read the book with an open mind and I am sure you would appreciate the content and the way the story was penned.

'Life Without Fear' was a short and sweet read on an interesting concept that is so common in today's times but so rarely discussed. The story telling is simple but will surprise you till the last page. The overall message I got from the book is to accept oneself and our loved ones as is. As hard as one's life is, anything can be dealt with if your loved ones are accepting and by your side.

We all live a life but how many of us can actually experience it as is?! Life without fear is a coming-of-age story of accepting oneself and fighting for one's identity. As an author, it was an absolute pleasure for me to write the book. Hope it will find acceptance in everyone's heart.
