Book Review by LITEROMA PUBLISHING SERVICES :: ‘And So Can You’ by Dr. Roopleen

** Thanks to the author for gifting us a review copy of the book.**

** Thanks to our reviewer Reetwika Banerjee for reviewing the book on behalf of Literoma. **

Now this is called a true motivational book - Be it ideawise, contentwise, representationwise or presentationwise, the book scores in every parameter. ‘And So Can You’ by Dr. Roopleen is not just a gift but it is a wonderful addition to the genre itself.

The book presents a set of seventeen success stories of doctors (mostly opthalmologists) which are not only inspiring, but also there are so many lessons hidden in them. Reading each life story made me traverse through their courses of life and there lies the success of Dr. Roopleen as the author. Her free flowing presentation has added that required spark in the book which otherwise would have been a stale narrative of several biographies. Since these stories are more of personal interviews, lets not judge them in terms of merit. There are inspirations to draw from every narrative compiled in the book by Dr. Roopleen.

Coming to the book cover - it is awesome in true sense. Special applaud to the designer who has given it a perfect international bestseller look. I will not be surprised at all if someday Dr. Roopleen calls me giving that good news.

Overall, Literoma rates Dr. Roopleen's 'And So Can You' as 4.7*/5* and strongly recommends readers to assimilate all the interviews and take lessons from their come back stories which have eventually made them successful doctors with time.

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

Image
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
