Promotional Book Review of ‘Clandestine Waters’ by Sumit Vanjani (2nd Review)


** Thanks to our reviewer Mr. R. Biswas for doing a promotional review of the book on behalf of Literoma. **

Thanks to Literoma and Author for gifting a review copy of the book. ‘Clandestine Waters’ by Sumit Vanjani is a a promising debut of author Sumit Vanjani. A big thanks to ‘Literoma Publishing Services’ for helping these young & budding writing talents to become published authors.

The interest sparks about the book immediately when a reader looks at the cover page. It’s a fantastically designed cover which appeals to the conscious and sub-conscious parts of the mind. The content of the book keeps the promises made by the cover. Sumit is an award winning speaker and it got reflected in his story telling style. With a very simple choice of words Sumit ensured the story is weaved in a proper manner.

However, there are scopes for improvement in the editing front. It highly lacked the professional touch. There have been some name mismatches in the contents. However, as a debutante venture that can be neglected. But from the next titles, the author needs to safeguard against this point if he wants to offer a seamless reading experience to his readers.

As a reader, irrespective of the fact whether you like or don’t like love stories, go ahead and explore this novella. It will be worth giving a read. Overall, the book is a praiseworthy effort by Literoma and Author. Recommended mostly for young adults.

1.      This is your first published book...what made you compose this one? Ans 1:   I had been writing short stories over the past 10 to 15 years and many of these were published in in-house magazines. Some were also selected   for recognition too. Having travelled the length and breadth of the country, it dawned on me to distil some of my experiences in fact and fiction and create a bouquet of short-stories into a book. I have been a fan of the renowned writer, Sudha Murty and read most of her books and that was certainly an inspiration. 2.      What are your two most favourite short stories from your debut book? Ans 2.   “ The Gift of Love” and “Lost Memories”. Love transcends myriad odds in life and “Gift of Love” is based on a true event of Dharavi, although fictionalised. In “ Lost Memories”, we would like our readers to be sensitive to the growing cases of dementia in society. I have tried to depict the sublime love of a daughter for her father afflicted by su

#LITEROMA Book Review :: ‘Death Served Cold’ by Sourabh Mukherjee

 ** Thanks to our reviewer for reviewing the book on behalf of Literoma. ** ‘Death Served Cold’ by corporate turned author Sourabh Mukherjee brings an insight to the world of dark feminism. It's a continuum of short narratives based on real incidents; and is thus listed under 'Non fiction' category. Women assassins, over the decades, who have committed world's brutalest murders, have found a corner in Sourabh's latest title. With the advent of technology, research has become quite easy these days and the reason of bringing this point in our review is the extensive details provided by author, supporting each narrative and involved characters. Readers would be left chilled to read the brutalities or coldness with which those murders were committed.  Narration style is also quite absorbing. However, the cover page could have been lot better. It does not appeal to us!  We would like to wish Mr. Mukherjee, the author, all the very best for his future writing stints. Read

Rimli Bhattacharya: The Rising Star of Literoma Galaxy

Author: Rimli Bhattacharya Romance is a popular yet a very difficult genre to explore in literature and that's exactly where Rimli Bhattacharya has ventured into with a smashing record over the years. Her first book 'The Crosshairs of Life' received a warm welcome earlier. However, Rimli's recent release 'That Day It Rained' made it to the Literoma Bestsellers at Book Fair 2021 (Kolkata, New Town). Both of Rimli's story books are tied to the same string of dark romance and nuptial abuses on women. It seems Rimli has mastered the genre with her powerful nib.  Most of her storylines bring out tough dilemmas of women when she is subject to extreme social, psychological or physical assaults by her own family members and/or dear ones. 'Running a Solo Marathon' from her debut book narrates how difficult is the life of a single woman / mother, fighting against all odds of life. Similarly, the title story of her second book, 'That Day It Rained' port
