An Excursion of Insight
Sonam was young of course, but this does not tell the story of just another young lad! Sonam did fall in love with Sarika, but this is not just another candid love endeavour! It all happened in an Engineering College Campus, but still it's not just the tale of another Campus.
Sonam, who had his own dreams and vision, came from the Land of Bhutan to India to pursue Engineering. A Buddhist (both by birth and faith), a little philosophical too, but the reader is not given a philosophical treatise on Buddhism.
A story that takes you from the valleys and tea-gardens of Assam, to the hullabaloo of student life and eventually to an Excursion, An Excursion of Insight...

Review on my blog: http://wp.me/p2J8yh-2lu
Lovely cover design that immediately attracts the reader and gives an idea of the story. The story in itself is well thought of and nicely put to words. It has depth in conception like a literary fiction ought to be, yet simplicity in the language used that can make it appealing to any reader. It highlights many issues that are known to us, or we might be able to relate to. The ending felt a little jarring, and I wish it was done better, but it doesn't take away from the story that happened before it. A beautiful story and I rate it 4/5.
