'The Notebook Of Romance: Moonlit Matinee 3' Published by
Gargi Publishers is out in the market now for you all to grab! This is a
collection of 25 most beautiful love stories written by 25 most talented
writers of our generation. But, Akash Rumade, a 21 year old from a small town
Roha in Maharashtra, is not only talented but gifted writers of our time. His
story, 'The Pristine Love', is a must read for all the Romeos out there. And
here's why:
Akash's story starts from a small gift shop in Alibaug and
takes us so much deeper inside the heart and soul of the city that there's no
turning back. Laxman aka Lucky, the protagonist of the story, is probably the
most fascinating character I have ever had the pleasure of reading. Akash
beautifully captures Laxman's thoughts, emotions and various activities and
leaves us guessing at what Laxman will do next.
Akash's beautiful story also captures the recently renovated
apartment in which protagonist spends most of his time during the story. And
that's when the Akash lits the 'candles' (probably number 1 and 9) of our brain
and takes us into the flashback.
In flashback mode of the story, Akash takes us down the
memory lane and leaves us with teary eyes on a beach under a starry night in
Alibaug. Akash, it really is the hardest to stop tears when you are alone. He
left no emotions untouched for us to point out.
He is definitely a 'mind reader' who loves keeping himself
busy with the 'glimmering beauty' of the night. His story is nothing but a
'Birthday Gift' for the girl of his dreams. Access protagonist, Laxman,
celebrates the birthday of the girl of Laxman's dreams, in the apartment and
when he does, ironically, an inexplicable sadness and pain grips your boat of
emotions and takes the boat to an an unknown island far away from the mainland
only to leave it shattered and broken. Akash, your true power lies not in the language,
setting of your story, but in the vast ocean of emotions. I would suggest
Laxman, the protagonist, not to wait until 35 to become an author.
Coming to the best part and my personal favorite part of the
story is set again in the apartment where Akash left his protagonist Laxman
before taking us through the flashback. Access story's highlight is the last
two paragraphs where he explains in depth, but to my surprise in fewer words,
philosophy of 'first love', the Pristinity (if there is any such word) of first
love and loving selflessly. This is where Akash leaves his readers completely
numb, speechless and in tears.
Akash Rumade's story, 'The Pristine Love', is a fabulous
story filled with emotions, love, beautiful beaches of Alibaug and is a must read
for every pristine soul out there. And if your soul ain't pristine, I bet your
soul will have transformed into one by the time you finish his story.
Akash's story can be read in the book, 'The Notebook of
Romance: Moonlit Matinee 3' Published by Gargi Publishers and can be ordered at
surprisingly low prices.
