A.📚BOOK REVIEW📚 Train to Pakistan: A gripping story, it re-ignites the pain, longing, and memories associated with the Partition of India in 1947.
🌾The book narrates how a secular village Mano Majra succumbed to the religious and political tensions at the time of partition.
🚉The train, which earlier transported people, now became a medium of mass killing, transferring their 'bodies' from one village to another.
🤍The story includes very sensitive issues and is beautifully written in a way that one can't put away the book easily.
🕊️LOVE KNOWS NO BOUNDARIES- BE IT THOSE OF CASTE OR OF THE NATIONS.
📖I would recommend this book to EVERYONE. The heaviness of the issues raised as well as the innate longing for brotherhood that's depicted in this book, makes it a personal favourite of mine.
