Book Review - Thinking Out Loud

Image
  Thinking Out Loud-Keeping Nothing Behind Author : Tapan Ghosh Publication : Become Shakespeare  Genre : Non-Fiction (Anthologies) Values and traditions are not a personal thing.We often tend to move forward with preconceived thoughts of society without giving a second thought to consequences.Equity & Justice would be mere words in the dictionary if there is no active response against oppression be it psychological or physical oppression. Written in the format of conversations ‘Thinking out loud’ explores multiple attributes of such exploitation(mental and physical) among people.Split into individual chapters (short stories),each unit focuses on a particular aspect of life in a philosophical perspective. After ‘Signposts’ this is my second read of Author’s wisdom of thoughts is reflected in his words. Rating - 4/5  Best wishes to the author !
