Thank you so much for your detailed review, Tomichan Matheikal. I have a feeling that my eBook is one of the longest ones of all, which is the reason why I did not want to go deeper into the psyche of many of my characters. Thank you for appreciating the nuances.
My review of this book is here: https://matheikal.blogspot.com/2022/06/some-charming-characters.html Here is an extract from the review: The paramount service this book does is to remind you of certain characters you shouldn’t forget. Those who know these characters will, hence, find this book a refreshing whiff of some sweet past. Those who are not so familiar with classical literature will find this book a gentle invitation to a big world that lies beyond the horizons of mediocre imagination. Not that these characters are sweet or gentle. Characters that leave deep marks on your soul can never be sweet or gentle. But your souls will be sweet and gentle if you have internalised the essential lessons from these characters. This is why Deepti Menon’s book becomes a guiding star in the engulfing darkness.
