Brajesh's Review: Lost Loves - Exploring Rama's Anguish
Does Dashrath's past haunt Ram's present? How are the 3 cities of Ayodhya, Kishkindha & Lanka symbolic to 3 dharmas? Where is Valmiki in the story that he tells? How does Love evolve, grow, shrink and die between Ram & Sita?
These are some of the fascinating questions Arshia Sattar explores in the 7 essays. Each essay is a gem in itself and the book strings them together as a priceless necklace.
Rating: 4/5
The book missed on 4.5 because there were only 7 essays and left me wanting for more :) :) :)
