My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The fun I had realizing the irony of the title! Totally unexpected, The Other Wife by Ruchira Khanna had a slice of comedy running thru it even when she opens our eyes to some introspection.
Dimple is in love, so when faced with objections to marriage from her parents, she obviously opts for the easiest solution that is to elope. But is her life gonna be a bed of roses when the parents that you have loved all your life holds that one act of rebellion as the greatest tragedy of their lives?
The author has portrayed the troublesome mind and the consternation hidden in the subconscious that derails every joy and becomes a hindrance to our daily life. The title does give a mysterious feel but the twist in the tale is sure to leave the readers with pondering thoughts about actions and reactions and the cause and effect of it all.
Ruchira Khanna always writes with a flair, easy and flowing narrative with humor and dry wit that engages the reader thoroughly.
The Other Wife is definitely a pleasurable read but what I do admire is the talent of the author in getting the reader to contemplate married life with a smile on one’s face especially in a novella.
Awesome 💦 💦 💦 💦 💦
