Book Review by #LITEROMA PUBLISHING SERVICES :: ‘Mohini The Tigress’ by Devi Raghuvanshi

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

‘Mohini The Tigress’ by Devi Raghuvanshi is by far the best of all of his books I have read till now. Right from the catchy title to the cover design, it is an absolute reader's delight. If I had found the book at any bookstore, I am sure to have picked it for my next reading without any second thought.

Coming to the novel plot in one line, it is a story of feminine torments, social harassments and their avenges through the eyes of the protagonist named Mohini. In today's society where every Indian witnesses a Nirbhaya fiasco around him or her, these kind of bold stories are much necessary and if influential authors like Dr. Raghuvanshi takes a step forward towards it, it is definitely going to have deeper impacts among the people through his readers. If it can change at least one life, that should be considered a success as an author.

This is Dr. Raghu's fifth book and maturity of the author as a writer can be clearly felt as a repeat reader. Story curation is extremely impactful and so are the scene settings. The relatable societal backdrop adds a special touch to the plot for Indian readers. The on ground detailing is so vivid that readers can feel pity and empathize the fictional victims.

I will like to rate the novel as 5*/5* and would strongly recommend for readers who are interested in socio-political dark plots.

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 sub...

#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...
