I met this wonderful author on 8th April 2017, through my Facebook profile, when I saw one cover page having a novel pictures that looks very beautiful to me. The name of the novel-'My Mother, a tribute of a yearning son’ seems to me very sad and poi gent.  I can sense that the novel have very close memories of the author regarding some event. It was sad to read description of the novel at the amazon page.

 When we land up at the amazon page, we can read the novel description as:

Mother-a tribute of a yearning son- is a book based on true events spanning nearly a month, from the day the first symptom showed up in the author's mother till her last breath. The book narrates the several tests conducted, including biopsy, on his mother to diagnose her health condition as precisely as possible, and how the Doctors went ahead with a major surgical procedure called as 'Whipple's Technique'. The book further portrays how the post-surgery recovery did n't happen as expected and how the author's mother was then shifted to ICU, only to lead to gradual deterioration of her health. The doctor finally confirms a rare type of cancer called as 'Ampullary Carcinoma' due to malignant tumors in her Common Bile Duct (CBD). Inspite of putting up a brave and stiff fight against the cancer, she ultimately breathed her last on 18th February, 2016. This book does n't showcase only the tough battle of an ailing mother against the 'crawling crab', but also the unshakable determination of the Doctor to save his patient and not the least, the perseverance and the resilience of each and every family member to hold on to the faintest of hope till the end. The author has also given a detailed account of the mourning ritual followed in the part of India to which his family belonged. The poetry section of the book has numerous poems dedicated to the author's late Mother and all the mothers, both in human society and in all her forms.

 Author have penned down the event of post-surgery of his mother and shared with all of us to share his sadness. I totally console him and wish him that he can move ahead in life with more beautiful memories of his mother in his heart rest of his life.

Now the review part:

1.     The name of the novel is sad, but 100% apt. It is self explanatory. Just reading the name of the novel, you can easily sense the plot of the novel.

2.     The cover page is simple having the image of a mother and a child. I loved the cover used in the novel cover.

3.      This novel offers the readers true events spanning nearly a month, from the day the first symptom showed up in the author's mother till her last breath. The narrative is very simple, heart touching, and can easily bring tears in your eyes.

4.     The book narrates the several tests conducted, including biopsy, on his mother to diagnose her health condition as precisely as possible, and how the Doctors went ahead with a major surgical procedure called as 'Whipple's Technique'. It seems like your friends is sharing his sadness with you. You can easily sense the  mind-set of the author.

5.     The author has also given a detailed account of the morning ritual followed in the part of India to which his family belonged.

6.     The poems in the novel are the best part.

                                 It is a MUST BUY!!!

3.      The co editors of the novel are Amol and Shaksham. Great work, as the language and editing of the novel is perfect.

4.      This novel talks about the family, first breakup, love, adulthood, how her dream turning into reality, and the reunion.

5.       The meeting with the astitva is the best in the lot.

6.       He is smiling and I am melting is also a cherry on the cake in the novel.

I met this wonderful author through my facebook page. He was a kind and humble man. He looks disciplined like all doctors do. I mean since my childhood, I always believed that doctors and Army man are the spices that are destined to talk, walk and live in most disciplined manner.  This author was the same and talk perfectly as per my expectation of my mind (wink). Sir was very polite since the beginning and shared a C Aruna of Indus Publishing Group in Bangalore. Contact details with me so that we can coordinate further.  Since the very beginning, I was curious to read his novel as it look very heavy and history packed! I got the novel through amazon and it was perfectly designed with hard bond cover.

When you land up at the amazon page, you can read the novel description like this:

This is the story based on the main event within the seventh book of Rigveda. It is the story of an epic battle between Sudas of Bharatas and Cayamana of Anus leading confederacy of ten disgruntled kings. It takes place on the banks of River Ravi, it is also battle between the two of the most powerful sages of Rigveda-Vashista and Vishwamitra.Extensive research into the vedic scriptures and archaeological records have helped to create a fascinating insight into the geography of the battle. It is the battle whose result is paradigm shifting in that the outcome decided the future of the great epics of India-Ramayana and Mahabharata

Now let me review it.

1.       The hard bond cover of the novel gave me a very good impression of the novel. It looks extra ordinary and worth to read. It give me an impression that the cover and binding is so nicely done that i can expect the content to be outstanding.

2.       The cover page and color of the cover is brown and dusty that gives me a feeling of past and histry, apt as per the genre.

3.       The name of the novel is tempting and self explain try.

4.        This novel talks about the historical evidence in the RigVeda (including geographical features, place names, people/communities, etc.).

5.       The language of the novel is very simple and engaging.

6.       If you want to know everything about Harappa Series, this is the novel for you!

I loved it.

From my side its 5/5
