Book Name: Go Clown #AccheDin for Comedy!
Author: Shatrugna Vadwlas
Blurb:
When Baby Kiriti arrived in this world, he was like a lost butterfly in a sea of white. A baby who is born and thrust into the huge sea of humanity called India, rides and steers his destiny ship, as he constantly grapples with the Clown inside him, who meanwhile brings out his own set of funny oars in these troubled waters.
The Clown’s journey continues on from a Karma-Guru to a trader of special water from Europe (thanks to his Made-in-China friend!), and from a music director (the Bad-Boy theme!) to the founder of a school, and a dirty sock to a sex-crazed, horny bunch of young fellas. The colors of the Clown’s comedy are different but he always plays to the circus of life. As Kiriti encounters a wide array of characters from the length and breadth of India, a land as rich as its flavours, the carefree years full of joy and young hopes come to an end, with the sweet smell of Ganja still lingering under the starry nights. The philosophy of Meaning is preached, after a session of holy smokes, on the sides of a dusty highway which sees blood and grime daily.
And finally with the Mystical Game which casts a shadow on Kiriti’s life having been won, everything is laid to rest under a blanket of white, only to be stumbled upon by a Sherpa on the peaks of the mighty Himalayas that wakes up something inside of his adorable son!
Is it a Thief, his Dream or the Clown?
And there is a 2000 year old Surprise Gift with the Novel! (Any Guesses?)
Review:
Go Clown #AccheDin for Comedy! – As the name suggests, this
book comes under the Comedy genre. I believe that it is very easy to make the
reader emotional but very difficult to make him laugh. This book achieves it.
You will certainly have a good laughter.
The story is about Kiriti and his life. The Clown is a
frequent visitor and it is he who steals the show. The plot is different and
completely unpredictable. You think of something that could possibly happen and
the book surprises you with different incidents. The humor is the plus point of
this book. This book will surely remind you of the mischief you did during your
childhood. You will also feel nostalgic about your college days.
The narration is in third person and instantly engages the
readers for its simple and lucid. Though the story is spread across 300 pages
(approx), you won’t feel bored when reading it. The ‘curiosity’ factor remains
intact until the very end.
If you are looking for some humor, some thought
provoking story, Go Clown will be the most suitable book for you.
I rate:
Cover: 2/5
Characters: 4/5
Story: 3.5/5
My overall rating for Go Clown is 3.5/5 stars
You can buy this book on Amazon
