About The Book
The remarkable story Kancher Deowal (Story of a Broken Home) explores the psychological impact of an adolescent girl growing up in a dysfunctional family.
It also emphasizes the possibility that parents can grow preoccupied with developing their own lives and, as a result, unintentionally neglect their kids.
My Thoughts
The author has described the story of the child of divorced parents in a lovely and dramatic way. How one child cannot handle the scenario on her alone.
The tale flows well and explores the depths of each character's psychology, with a particular emphasis on the rebel Brishti, whose acts may not be justified but are depicted in a very realistic manner.
I did not get the impression when reading this that the plot was entirely based on fantasy.
The ending was lovely.
