The Soft Target by Kalyan Nanda

The soft target is a story of boy who struggles with god plans at every stage of his life. With rare mental problems but a genius mind, his story starts from a village of Orissa and takes him to the high societies of Mumbai. He always faced bad treatment by god and gets harassed by others for no fault. Whenever he thinks that now his life is going to be okay, the god always thrown him back to the valley of failure but Mohan never left the struggle.

When we look at the cover page of the novel or just the title of the novel, we can predict that it can be a story of the boy who is bullied by people around him. But this novel holds a lot more than that!

The writing style of kalyan is very simple and keeps you stuck to the plot.

With simple usage of language, we can also see the strong essence of sarcasm and wit that keep you smiling instead of such a poignant situation of Mohan.

The breakup and a proposal scene in the novel are best portrayed.

The Soft Target offers you with a perfect writing style through the luminous characterization, picturesque description of places and time.

I loved the book.

The vocabulary used is magnificent as well as the orientation used or the way the author connects the audience in form of making conversation with readers is praiseworthy.

COVER: The pitch black background of the cover of the book adds an additional contrast with the steel hued dummy in the front and also highlights the title inscribed in white, red and blue, on the right hand upper corner of the book. It is eye catching.

Title: The title is apt to the content of the novel. The main plot of the story revolves around Mohan Mishra who is bestowed by God with a rare mental illness of unable to express his opinions and feelings in heart.

My rating : 5/5
