A house full of men
Parinda Joshi
Blurb:
Twenty-five-year-old
Kittu has left Lucknow only on two occasions in her life. The first trip
involved the last rites of her grandmother. The second involved a wedding,
thankfully, but she returned home to her mother's funeral. She has never
forgiven her mother for leaving her alone in a house full of men. Is there
anyone at home she can share her deepest thoughts with? Anyone who can lend an
ear to her endless relationship issues, manic obsessions, and simple aspirations?
Who's got the time? Kittu might live in a full house, but sometimes, she feels
like she's all alone in the world. A House Full of Men is a novel about false
starts and failed attempts, love, and the importance of being understood.

My Review
Kritidhara Pant is
an extremely youthful vigorous young lady who is filling in as a movement
essayist in a touring publication. From the outside, she is extremely glad to
go, sprightly and lively young lady yet nobody realized the tempest blowing
inside her.
She was encircled
by men all around her life. She has her granddad her dad and her twin siblings.
Her entire life is moving around every one of them dealing with them and in
some way or another she is in her very own inquiry character inside themselves.
She had a legend
in her brain that at whatever point she went out of Lucknow she lost somebody
extremely uncommon in her life and her previous experience simply amplifying
her fantasy as there are just two cases when she was away and she lost her
grandma and her mom during her nonappearance.
She was
additionally in an inquiry of her ideal soul mate after parted ways with her
past beau. She continuously began drawing in towards her new neighbor yet there
is consistently a sensation of frailty in her heart to her towards men.
To realize what
occurred next snatch the book and check it out.
The cover design
of the book is essentially planned with a pleasant topic and doddle acts. The
writing style is decent and has a totally different sort of plotline. The
writer attempted to keep it really basic without destroying the genuine
feelings of the book. Language is basic effectively justifiable and all the
more significant one can peruse it no sweat without coming down on his/her
mind. All the characters are well evolved and flawlessly portrayed. The book is
gradually paced now and again it seemed like extended a smidgen which at times
felt less captivating.
In general, a
decent fascinating read.
