For years I had been reading Fiction both for personal enjoyment and also for research. Thus each time I pick up a fiction, I have the above two, and then a third (review) purpose in mind.  Fortunately, the book came to me just before I traveled to a totally isolated camp-site where I was teaching, and thus I had plenty of distraction-free time at hand to read the book in a leisurely manner.The author picks the theme of genuine love and weaves a story around how love can put a person in unbelievable situations and how such persons try to go to any length for the sake of their love. The theme looks very simple, but it becomes complex when human ego, misunderstandings, and every-day circumstances add unexpected components to the recipe. The question now is, would circumstances, misunderstandings, human ego, and human frailities quench love or would people find a way to sustain love by rising above these factors. The story therefore becomes one filled with complex questions.The author has woven it all in a very expert manner so that the reader does not lose the thread and each moment wishes to know what would happen next. There is no obvious answer to that question, and this makes the story absorbing and interesting.The novel comes to an unexpected and unbelievable conclusion, but that conclusion is greatly satisfying to the reader. It also conforms to the moral expectations of those who want this society to be a good place. As always, I will not give away either the story of the end of it so as not to reduce the charm of reading it.I can summarize my review only by saying that this turned out to be a superb novel and that I strongly recommend it to everyone.
