FIRST IMPRESSIONS

When the Parallels Meet; Sadhna Shanker; Alokparv Prakashan; Rs. 350.

This slim anthology ranges from life after school to comments on international political situations.

More like the leaves of a private diary, these musings represent the author’s thoughts on any and every subject.

Be it Mayawati’s political prowess, fairness creams and their impact on the Indian male; a stint in Japan; childhood nostalgia or even an impression of trees.

Simply put together, these reflect the author’s opinions on a wide variety of issues.

Needless to say every little story has a hidden comment. The book makes for easy reading and is written in a simple everyday style.
