Devoid of Shelter - Hypocrisy & Reality: Book 4  (English, Hardcover, 'Videh' Arvind Kumar)

‘Devoid of Shelter’, the fourth volume in the long fiction series ‘Hypocrisy & Reality’ furthers the journey of the protagonist into the world where he discovered to his dismay that he had no place on the globe which he could call as his home; he had no place of his own where he could take shelter during the day, and during the night. He somehow makes do with seeking shelter with the relatives – maternal chiefly; not as a transitory phenomenon, but for good, until he himself took command of his life, snatching himself away from the indolent lifestyle of his parents. He also discovered during the refuge that however meritorious one might be, without the good base of ancestry, one is not considered as such. Roti, Kapdaa and Makaan are said to be the quintessence of life, of which, none was affordable to the protagonist during the regime of one’s parents.
