The Jamun Tree and Other Stories by Richa Gupta

The Realistic Fiction
Short stories are definitely a challenging format of story-telling because, within the restricted space and time, a lot has to be told without any hush! And having many stories woven under a similar or a particular theme is a herculean effort. The simple yet engrossing language in the book stands as a highlight. Apart from this, the titles of the stories are attractive. Each story has its own fabric of emotion and depth.

What to expect

The Jamun Tree is a perfect ala-carte of short stories that talk about life from various perspectives. It will surely appeal to readers who love realistic fiction. Since the book is set in the backdrop of present life and generation, it can essentially be called a sociorealistic drama. Expect a lot of relatable narration and some great perspectives coming straight from the future. There are some surprise elements in the short stories that are not easy to guess. Therefore, I recommend the readers to pick up this book and have a great experience.

Richa uses a language that is easy and simple to understand. Thus, with readable font size and font, the book can be read by readers of any age from maybe 14. This is my third book of her, and now realize I have a liking towards her writing, unknowingly.

A SHORT WALK ON THE MEMORY LANE

Nostalgia is both an ache and a draught, a draught more aptly as it provides the required energy to the wistful heart and patiently remains one’s undeterred friend during lonesome times and even transporting one to the blissful world of memories far away from the tension-ridden beguiling present.

Wandering Into the Nostalgic Lane to Seal a Promise

Distantly, what caught their breadth was the seraphic view of snow-capped Himalayas at the backdrops, partially covered in the thin blanket of white clouds. The air was crisp with a hint of Nostalgia as the sound of the nearby streams whispered tales of their past.
