#BookReview Howrah Bridge by Anup Babblu Jetty

 

About The Book

Howrah Bridge is a fictional story of a married couple in Kolkata. They are parted away from each other but are connected with hearts by a strong bond of love.

Bengali culture and the beauty of Kolkata are the added flavors to this story.

My Thoughts

Howrah Bridge is a story about a married couple in Kolkata. They have grown apart, yet their hearts are linked by a strong bond of love. This story is enhanced by Bengali culture and the splendor of Kolkata.

This is the first book by author Anup Jetty. What I felt about the book is, that it’s written like a script. This is a unique way of writing and can be hugely successful if done properly. However, what I felt is that the author struggled a lot with finding the right words.

The flow of the book is really fast, however, in that fast flow, character development suffered a lot.

Overall, for me, it’s a good first attempt.
