Blurb:

‘The Author’ begins with the story of a published book which has been maintaining its position of being the ‘best-selling book’ for last few years, but no reader knows who the writer of this is. A press conference is convened to disclose the fact of its author. In addition, it will disclose the fact why the readers have been put in the dark so far in connection with the identity of the author. The MD of the Publication House is a young lady who narrates a story before introducing the author of the novel. The story begins with Bangala Sahib Gurudwara at Connaught Place, Delhi. It is 14th February, the Valentine Day. In the meantime, a boy falls fainted at the gate of Sacred Heart Church. Nobody but two attendants of the church, Mrs. David, and her blind granddaughter, bring him to the hospital for treatment. While the boy’s treatment is on, it is discovered that he has tried to commit suicide. The boy’s name is Samar. Samar is an orphan and in an orphanage, he was brought up under the tutelage of Mother Marry. Spring is his fast friend with whose help he succeeds in winning the heart of a voracious reader of novels, Sufi. The Author is the story of love, dreams, sacrifice and an unquenched thirst. It deals with a journey to being a promising author for the fulfillment of other’s dreams.


My verdict: 


The title of the book is really interesting and appropriate for the story. The cover is simple , full with grey hints us that there is something mysterious in the story. The blurb tells sufficient about the story and it's impressive. The story revolves around the life of Samar , an orphan, and his journey of become an Author. He is crazily in love with Sufi. The entire story revolves around his love life and struggle.  The book has been written in a wonderful way. Storyline is good. Language is simple and beautiful. The hindi poetry in the book was really good and added extra flavour to the story. The style of narration is captivting and immensely interesting. It was a great experience with book.
