Description

‘Vivek was all I wanted. I was ready to do anything for him. He reminded me of Krishna, the love that I had lost and yet he was so different—young, innocent, totally oblivious to the ills of the world, unmindful of my deep desire to possess him, make him my own. It was all consuming, this need, this craving . . .‘

A brokenhearted Kaushik arrives in the small, sleepy town of Valai, leaving his disturbing past behind. And even as Valai proves to be anything but slow and laid back, with all its scandals and rumour mongering, Kaushik falls in love again—this time with Vivek. However, the rush of love he feels for this young, innocent village boy is not without its dilemmas—is it the right thing to do? Would Vivek understand if Kaushik tells him the truth about his sexuality?

As his love becomes an obsession, life turns into a game of manipulation for Kaushik. Until destiny intervenes and takes him on a course that he neither has any control over nor is he able to change.

Touching story

A very nicely written book. It was my first novel exploring gay love and I must say it was a touching experience. It sure is a page turner. The author candidly and delicately brings out the trauma of growing up with gay emotions in a straight jacketed straight society. Earnestly look forward to its movie adaptation in future. Something that cannot be agreed upon is the reasoning behind the protagonist Kaushik becoming a gay. That I felt could have been dealt with in a better way or better sti...

Touching

The attraction, physical and emotional bond, the longing, the cruel realities of a gay man's life very well reflected. One could easily relate to atleast some part of the novel. Kudos!

True Indian Gay Scene - Read it & U will accept Gays with open heart.

I really donno why Indian queer circle has not appreciated this book and the author but the fact is this book is just masterpiece of Indian Gay literature.

This guy has shown reality of Indian Gays & hows their life goes. Being gay in India is not what normal people think & definitely not what urban Indian gays present.

Wonderful book for all gays & especially for them who are not gay :) It will give them true understanding of Indian Gays.

A Must read for Gays & Non Gays! Read it & U wi...
