Author Info
  • Tapan is an engineer by profession but an adventurous man at heart who has lived life on his terms. His book ‘Faceless’ is his first foray outside the field of Science and Technology. His honest style draws extensively from people and places he knows and is familiar with. There is an autobiographical element in the book and the backdrop is SoBo or South Bombay (Mumbai, to be politically correct). The milieu captures the essence of today’s urban Mumbai. Tapan can be reached at: www.tapanghosh.in

Quick reading while waiting for your flight

The book about soul mates and spiritual love starts well...promising beginning till the author plays to the gallery by going overboard with explicit sexual descriptions. Are they really necessary? I skip read those three four chapters. Apart for that it is a good read, description of South Mumbai life interesting.

One Love Two Births

I am an avid "Fiction Fanatic" and read this book a month ago, but felt like keeping my POV to myself. I am just fond of reading reviews rather than writing them.

This book has drawn a lot of interest and hats off to Tapan for the great story telling.It definitely is on my recommended list.

There is a little bit of past life, 26/11 backdrop, two friends, one Raima who will remain etched in my memory. Raima's character comes to life and surely makes a mark on every male reader, who's de...

LAND YACHT

The Land Yacht. Never heard this term before but its so apt.
A Vanity Van, the way it moves, especially on the Indian roads will give the feel of a Yacht. So true.
The first time Shom and Raima made love was in the Land Yacht, after they shared a joint or two. The sensual love is described so well, its so natural and so well written that I could visualize it.

Raima a reformed escort is so well portrayed that she would be admired by every full-blooded man. Her inner beauty in particular just...

Salman Rushdie & Shemales

What has Rushdie to do with the Shemales. What is the Author trying to say in that Chapter and the one before that. Does he believe that Salman had an affair with Anisha and that he prefers to be in their company. It's very interesting to know this. The fact that Salman is seen in the company of taller and stronger looking women and so were both his ex-wifes. He has apparently written about the Shemales in Bombay. We would like to have a confirmation on this.
Would Tap...

Different take of the society

This might not be one of the best books in the category but it surely talks about love and passion in a manner I haven't read before.
Faceless is a story about the things that keep happening all around us. I enjoyed the author's detailing and the background characterization done though sometimes this made it draggy (somewhere in the middle). Overall, the book is a breezy read. It might not win literary awards but will surely win people's respect.

A storyline, that most people can relate to ! Good Read...

I really enjoyed this novel. It is a quick read especially since I completed loved the characters ! I definitely recommend picking up this one, it will be hard to put it down.
The storyline is good and has content that most of the people would relate to however the writing is more like a movie script than a novel. A lot of the conversations were in dialogue form, which i personally, really liked !
Shom's character is dealt with deeply. The book makes for an entertaining read and I recommend...

Lot of Substance...

I read your book Tapan, it has a lot of substance. I in fact had to read some chapters twice. On the surface It's a fast read but also very involving at places. I have a question to ask that I hope you reply.
Is this the only way out, do you really mean it. I don't think so....

Facepalm !

The book is an average read...it gets interesting in parts....but is too disjointed to make much scenes.....and the sex scenes are described vividly....a prime example of "Sex sells !"
Another author in the plethora of new-age Indian authors; the writings are far from literature.....but more like book versions of Bollywood movies !!

Gripping story of a segment of society you may not be familiar with...

Faceless is a look into the lifes of two people who are soulmates! The story is a heartbreaking but unique tale that will stick with you. Gripping story of a segment of society you may not be familiar with...
Faceless makes you care about the characters even when you don't necessarily like them...you may actually choose to disagree with Shom's choices...
It is a Quick and engaging read.
I could not put the book down...and finished it at one go ! The story is well-written and the characters ar...
