Böcker av Shilpi Jha

'Sukh Ke Beej' contains stories arising out of the darkness of life. There are hopeful rays of light in these stories and also the bitter truth of life. The story 'Sukh Ke Beej' presents life as a crossroad where we see infinite possibilities on the unchosen path and in the temptation to get this unattainable, we forget to properly fertilise and water the seeds of happiness present on the chosen one. 'Sugar Daddy' is the story of Mrs Menka Sharma. As the second wife, Mrs Sharma's life has come to the same turn, where Mr. Sharma's first wife was once. It has a scathing statement of something to be lost and something to be gained in exchange for iridescent sarees and expensive jewellery. Other stories of the collection also create an invisible magic on the mind of the reader with their language and underplot.
