✨Book Review✨

 'Handful' by Amit Dsouza is an evocative collection of short-stories that delves into the resilience of the human spirit. Spanning different eras and settings, these tales weave narratives of survival against the backdrop of real-world challenges and historical moments. Each story in the collection offers a unique lens into the lives of individuals navigating trials of their time, presenting a diverse tapestry of human experiences.


What sets "Handful" apart is it's ability to bring history to life through deeply personal and relatable storytelling. Dsouza masterfully captures the emotions, struggles and triumphs of characters from different walks of life. Whether it's a farmer enduring a draught in a bygone era, a wartime survival grappling with loss, or a modern-day individual facing societal pressures, the stories resonate with authenticity.


The writing is vivid yet accessible, allowing readers to immerse themselves in the historical and cultural nuances of each tale. Dsouza's talent for balancing hope and hardship ensures the stories linger long after the final page, prompting readers to reflect on their own capacity for resilience.


"The son of the Dragon" & "Rajjo" are my favourite stories. While the anthology doesn't shy away from exploring grim realities, it also highlights the enduring power of community, compassion and preservance. Readers looking for inspiration and a deep connection to the past will find "Handful" an impactful and enriching read.


A compelling and thoughtful exploration of survival across time, "Handful" is a tribute to the indomitable human spirit, making it a must read for lovers of character driven narratives.


Must read♥️♥️
