Adultery by Paulo Coelho Review



Author: Paulo Coelho

Price: Rs. 947

Pages: 272

Genre: Thriller, Romance

I had the excitement when I picked up Paulo Coelho’s book Adultery as the title had a lot to say. Paulo Coelho’s inspirational content is the reason for the popularity of his books. In this book, he has a very different style of writing. 

The story is about Linda, who is a journalist in her thirties, with a husband and two children. She is quite content with her married life. She loves her family but discovers that there is something missing in her life and killing her inside. She craves for some excitement. As a result, she falls in love with her school boyfriend which results in an explicit relationship. Out of her depression, she even meets a drug dealer and thinks he is a person who she could talk to. Linda feels ashamed for whatever she had done and understands the true meaning of life and love. She abandons her past relationship with her boyfriend and starts fresh with her loving husband and beautiful family which is still with her, through her tough times. 

I found something really wrong with the flow. I only finished this because it’s a short read and I wanted to see if it got any better. This book failed to offer me anything interesting. It’s not worth a read.

Zadie smith: Book Review: Swing time

Author:  Zadie Smith Pages:  464 Price:  INR 599 Genre:  Fiction, Contemporary, Literary Fiction Swing Time  is Zadie Smith’s fifth novel and for my money her finest. A “best friend bildungsroman” in the Elena Ferrante mould, the novel tells the story of two girls growing up on the wrong side of town. Residents of neighboring housing estates in London, the pair meet at a community dance class, one (the unnamed narrator) clever and self-doubting, the other (Tracey) confident and self-destructive. As with the Italian bestseller, the talented friend is the tortured one – prematurely sexual, rebellious at school, ungoverned at home – while the less gifted is an able student, determined to make it out of the neighborhood.

For its plot alone,  Swin...
