I was reading Anil Annaiah' s latest book : Simple Perceptions. Here I am sharing my views.

It is a book of simple thoughts.
A collection of author's own.

The author has presented a set of simple perceptions to ponder upon. He shares that writing these has been a process of revelation and an adventure with words. As I read them, I could definitely feel these strings of words emerge from the observation of humanity.

Each page is accompanied by beautiful black-and-white pictures. These images in this book remain close to the words and offer a sense of conceptualism.

They are simple yet powerful lines that help us delve into ourselves. Our minds are wonderful things of art made by God, and to know their potential is one of the best things we can do in our lives. But in many ways, we start forgetting them, and in such situations, these kinds of books really help us remember the real essence of being human. The author's way of letting us change our perception is unique and purposeful.

It is a light and fast-paced read. I believe that images help us remember things better, and if only few words of wisdom are spoken without bantering or dragging on too much. Thus, I think each page has a quote and a picture. These are thoughts to contemplate upon. To think and thus calm ourselves down and let the words guide us in the correct direction. Our own voice will help us walk in the right path.

It is a simple yet meaningful ebook that one can read on Kindle. So do go for it.

This remarkable book invites readers on an enchanting journey through the labyrinthine corridors of contemplation and introspection, where words become keys to unlock profound insights into the essence of humanity.

Furthermore, "Simple Perceptions" stands out as an "adventure with words." It's not just a collection of thoughts but an invitation to embark on a transformative journey. Annaiah guides readers through a process of revelation, unveiling the magic woven into human expression and the profound truths hidden within the simple perceptions of life—a fourth trope that defines the book's essence.

Simple perceptions, a book that is filled with words of wisdom and life lessons and a book that will help you connect with mother Earth.

Words have the power to change one's destiny and this book is an example for the same. Along with motivating the readers author is also creating awareness about a lot of things. This is his second book that I'm reading and I must admit that his words have the power. And the images that are used in the book will soothe your eyes. They're so aesthetic. Author also talks about how important it is to pay attention to everything that's happening and how one must listen keenly and observe ardently. And there is this one quote that holds immense value " Ocean is an inspiration to help you build a larger perspective about yourself and stand firmer on the ground you stand on". And author makes you fall in love with nature a lot more than you already do. A powerful book filled with meaningful qoutes and beautiful pictures.
