review 1: The initial pages made me rethink to continue reading this book.The start is very slow.As the pace increased..i was captivated and intrigued..surprisingly the middle part is very intresting.There are strong shades of feminism & dealings wid mid lyf crisis in this book.Too many characters and there flashbaks are little confusing..All the goodness is overshadowed because the ending is very disappointing.A decisive action at the end could have been better..
review 2: lessons in forgetting in so many ways feels like a book written for making a movie. Protagonist's struggle in this book to forget their painful pasts, find solace in future and the world that is moving around them. The book nicely portrays the view indian society has on women. There are women in cert... moreain parts breaking the shackles of society and then women penalised for having a girl child. The books plus point is the sense of purpose it will fill you up with and that you are here to do more than just live your life in the shadow of your partner.I did find it clichéd here and there reminding me of a bolly movie. Overall an average read if you have time off your hand and need a break between serious reading. less
