Prisoners of Hate by C.V. Murali (Book Review)
CEans,
Mr. C.V. Murali is an IIT Graduate presently handling high quality job at Chennai based MNC. Mr. Murali is author of two books. Here's our review of his second book, Prisoners of Hate -
As the bookâs name clearly suggests, hatred leads to imprisonment of the sound soul and provokes it to do the inevitable worst.
Set in Mumbai, this novel explores the minds of its protagonists - Farhan, Madhav and Sanjay â three men whose lives are intertwined together by a quirk of fate. The story is set in time between the pre-partitioned India and the twin tower attacks.
The author of this book, C.V. Murali, has excellently penned the changes in the thought process of these three men over the expanse of time and their reasoning of their actions.
The thoughts expressed throughout the novel are so clear and true that not only is Mr. Murali successful in making us see the things through his perspective, but he also provokes self-contemplation in the reader from time to time.
