I have started falling in love with novellas. They are short, to the point and convey a lot. This novella by Paulami is no exception. Wonderfully written with a crisp storyline Ri is a delight.<\/p>\n
While I know the North-Eastern states on India, I admit my knowledge beyond their names and capitals is minimal. I have always wanted to visit the region and hopefully someday I will.<\/p>\n
The story follows an insurgent group planning an attack in Shillong and how the police inspector Kyndiah tracks them down. Manbha is one of the protagonists and his changing emotions as he leads the insurgent group into India and later hides in the home of a journalist is well-captured.<\/p>\n
The one thing I wish the author had written about was the beauty and bleakness of the land where the story lies. There are few descriptions here and there and they want me to experience the area through Paulami’s words.<\/p>\n
A crisp read to open your eyes.<\/p>\n
