“So you don’t like mysteries! Isn’t it?”
Fotu-Babu was outrageous all of a
sudden. “Then listen to it straightway you
son-of-a-bitch. You are not my son. You are the product of a heinous act of
your mother and what a whore she is!”
Boltu felt his body going limp.
Boltu was in his late teens when he discovered
this rancorous truth of his life.
By that time he had already been an
antisocial, an outlaw and had been in
bad company; but there was a subtle
difference- he was a dreamer, he was a
tender lover, he could sing and he had a
true friend in Madhab. He wished to
do something worthwhile; yet he lacked
direction. Would Boltu keep drifting
aimlessly? Or would he find his
destination? Whether the destination would be
worth its salt?
Review:
INSPIRATIONAL story out of the box this time! Story
starts with the introduction of Boltu, a Bengali boy from Rajgangpur, whose
father is a criminal. Not only his father, but he himself also do some pick
pocketing for his livelihood. Once he with his friends tries something bigger
than these small crimes. They made a plan to rob a house of a rich doctor but
at the time of leaving house, he was stuck there when he saw the doctor in
unconscious state. Boltu is an inspirational character in the story, till the
end, he never fails to inspire. Starting of the story is common but as the
story progresses, interest starts building up. The story doesn’t just tell how
to change yourself but also to love and grow. Author did a justice to the
character and the small chapters made it easy for me to remember the last one.
Narration and language is easy but just before the end, it was little boring as
I think the author stretched the story there and he kept the ending short. But
overall, the book is good. And if anybody feels that he is not at the right
stage of his life, he should start reading this book.
Congratulations to the author for coming up with
‘motivator’ (it is not just a book but a life).
