Book Review: Decisions of Heart by Saurabh Pant

 🔴DECISIONS OF HEART🔴

RATINGS:⭐⭐⭐⭐💫(4.5/5)



Love demands no barriers. It absolutely has no boundaries. There is no horizon. The thin line of the idea of love forms a slight barrier to the real essence of love. The book is a beautiful work that lets you feel. You may end up breathing the thin air of love and see yourself standing amidst the forest of love. The book lets you reminisce those memories,when you were surrounded with the feeling of love.


The poems talk about how everything made no sense when we poured our hearts out infront of our loved ones. Even silence spoke. And it screamed. It said that "Yes,we're in love." And now, it's just a memory of cold, wintry nights on summer days. The thread of love was strong enough to hide those little secrets we shared once. The beauty of each poem lies in the days that glowed once. With the passage of time, it faded. Gradually. But the love continues climbing onto each mountain we see. The poems lets you re-visit those dark forests, where you hid the little footsteps of love and how you keep excavating it to find love some day. 


I loved how the author penned down the poems philosophically and practically and how it merged into one in the end. This is the second book I'm reading--by this author, and I can ensure that he has a very good command over poetry. The book cover could have been better. The red colour could have been done in one way or more specifically,in one stroke and not in different or twisted directions. But..but..but I loved one drawing in particular--the 'diya'. The mix is so perfect.

Grab the book if you want to sink deep into the ocean of love!

Book Review-Burning Asia:The Present Image by Saurabh Pant

BURNING ASIA:THE PRESENT IMAGE Ratings:⭐⭐⭐⭐💫(4.5/5) The title 'Burning Asia' shook me to the core,as if the continent is falling apart. The subtitle points out that this is not only a poetry collection,but also a critical account in verses about what Asia went through.This highlights the present image of world's largest continent,Asia. The feeling of impending doom stays throughout the book. Humans lay hold of dreadful actions which brought gruesome consequences.A war of extremes leads to nothing,but destruction. Violence and terror are inscribed on these pages. A sense of fear is generated throughout. What seems to be words suspended under a bar of verses gradually take you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions.  Do we, as citizens know what's coming next or what's going to happen to the world we live in ? We feel caged. And the culprits still rejoice in the open. This has been going on a continual basis.How long shall we live on the basis of mere conjectures? The a...

Book Review: Rage of Marine Titans by Saurabh Pant

  RAGE OF MARINE TITANS The novella, 'Rage of Marine Titans' is set in the backdrop of the Russian Ukraine conflict of 2022, as the Preface itself suggests. We have witnessed, in some way or the other, the horrendous atrocities committed by mankind. One such instance is the power struggle of the Russian-Ukraine conflict that reached the pinnacle of a boiling point, disrupting order and making its way to gigantic chaos. Subsequently, the sequential order is overthrown by the dominant authority furthered not only by Russia's invasion but it is bolstered to a great extent by pro-Russian forces in Ukraine.  The author, Saurabh Pant in 'Rage of Marine Titans' talks about the illusion of the glory of war. It reminds me of Wilfred Owen, a war poet who decidedly debunked the whole concept of war. The author presents vivid descriptions of the setting- the quietness, the numbness, the oxymoronic "silent whispers" is enveloped in an air of trepidation, waiting for ...
