Engrossing tale of rebirths and past lives


In the times of sequels and series, ‘The Sorcery of Senses’ authored by ‘Tanima Das’ offers 3 stories in one book. On a serious note, I am certain there will be a sequel to this book (and I am quite excited about it).

While the author narrates three completely different stories, they are connected by one link. Thumbs up for the idea and concept! 

Tanima has picked the theme of re-birth for her debut book. The plot is about the protagonist Dhruv who revisits his past lives with the help of three senses (vision, touch and smell). After that, he realizes his life's purpose.

    

The story is well thought out and well narrated. The writing is quite detailed and engrossing. In the stories of Dhruv's past lives, he lives in different eras and regions. Tanima’s style of selecting the names of those characters, their backstories, emotions and reasonings are very human and relatable. Other characters are also well-defined. Kolkatta's description in the story is vivid. The language is easy to understand.

Overall, it is a fascinating read. Unputtdownable!
