ANADI-ANANT

THIS IS THE 8TH NOVEL BY THE AUTHOR AADYA RANGACHARYA. THIS NOVEL CASTS A LIGHT ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN A MAN AND A WOMAN. ACTUALLY, NOWHERE IN THIS NOVEL HE DESCRIBES THE INTIMATE ACTS BETWEEN A MAN AND WOMAN BUT MERELY SUGGESTS. HIS STYLE REFLECTS THE INNER CORE OF THE HUMAN BEINGS. THOUGH VERY SIMPLE THIS STYLE IS VERY EFFECTIVE. THIS NOVEL IS BASED ON THE RELATIONSHIP OF A HUSBAND AND HIS SICK WIFE, A REAL BED-RIDDEN ONE WHO IS UNABLE TO GIVE HIM ANY PHYSICAL PLEASURE. AFTER HER DEATH, HE MARRIES HER COUSIN TO WHOM HE WAS ATTRACTED TERRIBLY. THE WHOLE NOVEL THEREAFTER IS BASED ON THEIR RELATIONSHIP. IT ENDS ABRUPTLY, WHEN WE THINK THAT IT IS GOING TO TAKE SOME GOOD TURN.
