Cut: The Death and life of a Theater Activist

Author - Sreemoyee Piu Kundu
Publisher - Bloomsbury Publishing

"All your life you fought my wars,
Wore my victories as a crown of thorns"

Let's talk about cover first. Cover is eye catching and interesting. I would have purchased this book just by looking at cover. At first I was confused by name but, at the end of book I got clear vision of name.

This book is based on Amitabh Kulashestra. One of the best theater activist who died in a train as a nameless. Before reading this I was quite confused. I would like this or not. But, it turns out to be more than I expected.

The plot is fast paced and well written anyone can hooked up till the end. The story is narrated in different point of view. People can find this is little bit hard to digest. 

The characters are well developed and described. Every character has its own power to fit in this book. My personal favorite character is protagonist's wife Sarla Kulasheshtra. Her character feels so real. This is powerful and so additive book.

Book start with "blind side" and ends at "cut". I felt like I'm watching a live movie. That started with nothing and ended with "CUT".  There are other favorite character also maya who sacrificed career, RK who never forget first love.

This books deserve to be read by everyone. Overall it's very emotional book. The writing is so flawless that I felt every character is part of me.

Definitely you should read.

I would rate 4/5
