  • Description

    Fade into Red, authored by Reshma K. Barshikar, is the story of a twenty-something investment banker named Ayra, who had always wanted to be an art historian.

    Summary of the Book

    Ayra, who dreamed of becoming an art historian, realizes one day that art history could not feasibly upkeep her love for beautiful shoes. But that monsoon day, she is sent to Rome on an eleventh-hour appointment with a celebrated client. The trip should have ideally been a four-day plan, but it ends up becoming a two-week treasure hunt, engaging her in the middle of dubious vintners, wee-hours deals, rolling Tuscan hills, and also millionaire playboy! Read this compelling story of the young lady, the book certainly offers you an unputdownable read.

    A Travellogue and Romance rolled into one

    We are introduced to the heroine of the tale, Arya (lovely name by the way), an investment banker with a degree in art history, living in Mumbai, travelling all over the world for on-site inspections, with a love of expensive shoes and clothes and belonging to a middle-class south Indian family. In fact, she is just like so many women I know; intelligent, independent, loves her family and given to a weakness for the more luxurious materialistic pleasures of life.

    It was okey, average story line

    I thought almost all the characters, except Ishaan, were like straight out of some hilarious movie. Ayra herself was likable. From being horribly insecure and confused, she did quite well as a free independent, investment banker. Uber cool Karthik managing a band was the perfect bachelor. I liked every member of Ayra’s big south Indian family, especially Mangama who moved in and out of the rooms like the elf in the Harry Potter movies. Though one of the lead I didn’t like Ishaan- the quintess...

    Wine, Woman and Wealth

    Here is a book that the young, multinational, globe trotting, working professional will relate with. It has all the ingredients to make it interesting. A boyfriend with whom the wedding is fixed, assignment at work taking an ambitious yet rooted Ayra to places of wine, a wealthy women-charmer boss and all the family and friends drama.
    Ayras Chennai roots, a typical Indian family are beautifully described and so is a newer concept for most of the Indian readers - wine making. The detailing is...

    Awesome read

    This is a super fun book with bits of Mumbai, Chennai, Italy all thrown in. There's something for the romantic, the comic, the idealist, the mystery junkie and and the travel obsessed in this book. Its the story of a person finding herself and what she really enjoys (something I am still in the process of doing in fact) and the bits about the family in Chennai felt like she was writing about my family only! I chuckled my way through the hilarious antics of Ayra K. and cant wait for Reshma Bs ...
