Not for the faint of heart.

Anyone who knows me would know that I don't read much of Indian writing, not because I have something against it (which obviously, I don't) but more because I can't relate to the writing style. However, after reading the synopsis, I started reading The Edge Of Desire, not just with an open mind but also with a lot of interest because the plot seemed to be deep and powerful.

Let me begin with this - Tuhin Sinha's writing is nothing like the stuff I've read before by Indian writers. It's simp...

The Edge of Desire - An incredible novel!

The Edge of Desire is a marvellous read. It may be dealing with politics, rape and other issues, but at its heart, it is a beautiful exploration of relationship dynamics. Be it mentor-protégée, live-in partners, estranged lovers, father-daughter, husband-wife, leader-opposition leader, individual-society, victim-tormentor...and pretty much the entire gamut of relationships that a woman’s life can be influenced by, Tuhin Sinha effortlessly weaves them into an interesting story that makes you w...

Too political... more like a documentry

Tuhin A. Sinha has done a wonderful job in creating this novel. The journey of woman from no-one to someone is awesome. I enjoyed reading her journey. But my enjoyment was short lived.

After about 150-160 pages (half of the story). The turn of events seems irrelevant. The first half of the story is a treat but the other half is like reading Indian history via some documentary files. I had to force myself to finish this story, I lost interest after I finished like 60-65% of it. Most of the th...

A good read for fun... who has at least some interest in politics...

Nice book to read. Yes, it's more like a political documentary and it seems some of it's story is related to an Indian politician. The hardliner approach and patriotism, policies, strong approach to protect country, but still don't want to hurt innocent etc etc..

In all, a good read just for fun.

The Edge of Desire

I have loved reading Tuhin Sinha’s books and I’m eagerly waiting for his new book, ‘The Edge of Desire’. The book talks about a lady who is physically abused and how she decides to fight back when no one is willing to stand by her. It shall describe all the problems and difficulties that she faced. I feel this book would encourage women to be strong and fight for her justice come what may.
