- Author: Bhawana Somaaya

Writer and lyricist, Javed Akhtar, releasing Bhawana Somayya's Farewell Karachi in Mumbai on May 30th said: The kind of depth and maturity she has of people and situations in this book were beyond my imagination.

The way she has analyzed the bygone era and gone through it is unbelievable. If a literary piece is easy to read, it'll lack depth. And if it has depth, then it's difficult to read. She has maintained such a perfect balance between the depth and tempo." Perhaps the most difficult experience for anyone is to be uprooted from your home to move and start a new life elsewhere can be life changing. Sometimes, so shattering that the trauma and bitterness stay deep and long.
