Life
is mysterious!
And
Nature is the biggest scientist!
One
split second the world can turn upside down. Just like fate that can
change in split second. One moment ago you might have lost everything
and the next minute it might get changes and you might have
everything that you ever wished for.
Life
is totally unpredictable. Its fine if we can’t comprehend what is
happening in the present, because there are forces behind that moment
that we are completely unaware of. Just because of the fact that we
don’t have the devices or patience to see the unseen.
The
book “Two leaves and a bud,” has captured the very essence of
life and the day to day happenings of life, on paper. While reading
the book I was in complete awe of the in-depth analysis of the author
about the people’s daily life.

“I
wonder about the way people behave at the site of the tragedy. The
journalists who arrived at the spit form nowhere tried to extract as
much information as possible from those injured and the
onlookers………….
The
canteen boy appeared and offered tea and snacks at double the cost.”
I
have omitted a few lines on purpose of the above paragraph, you need
to buy the book what find the missing lines. Whatever the author has
explained does really happen in the real world. These intricate
moments carved out from the obvious makes for a stunning book and
shows the commitment of the author to his work.
What
I believe is that its tailor cut for the characters in the story and
how the reader will be impacted once he has read the book. Now this
is a very important detail, to be able to write what the reader knows
and how he would perceive things once he has read it, for
introspection or to understand the ways of life, is an exemplary work
by the author.
The
pace of the story is good and the plot immersive. While I loved the
nature of the story telling skills of the author, I disliked the too
much details of the characters and the surrounding that could have
been avoided for the reader to only focus on the protagonist of the
story and the abrupt endings. I believe the author is working on the
sequels as I would really love to know what happened to that
characters of the story next.
Overall
“Two leaves and a bud,” is an incredible piece of work by the
author that will create an impression on whosoever decides to turn
the pages and is patient enough to read till the last page of the
book.
I
wish all the luck to the author “M A Chacko,” for the success of
the book and for all his future endeavours.
