BOOK REVIEW CHAOS, THEOS and KOSMOS

 

                                         

                                                     BOOK REVIEW

        CHAOS, THEOS and KOSMOS

        


I must start with an honest confession that my judgement about this book went wrong terribly.

Having three to-be-read books on my desk, I thought this would be fiction but when I started reading, I  found it unique. This book has fifty short articles on different topics. The authoress Kosha Shah Chandaria renders her inspirational views in a subtle, blatant and phenomenal expression. Her writing reflects that she is a liberated woman who has a clear vision of life and its phenomenons. 

      On Menstruation, she writes-                    

                          Why be ashamed of the stains... of your own blood?

                 If breathing can be normal, why can't bleeding be?


 The narrative is poetic, though it is not poetry. I wonder what amount of thoughts she invested to write such a book. As she submits-

"Overthinkers are true lovers, the real achievers...Those who care, Those who really care..."

The authoress confidently and unabashedly talks about the relationships and taboos to which a lot of stigmas are still attached and a larger part of our society shy away talking about.

I loved the conversational style of writing. The opinions are expressed with a careful watch against being preachy or sounding superior.

Kosha Shah's 'Chaos, Theos and Kosmos' is a wonderful read that profoundly represents an educated and empowered woman who has strong opinions and a clear vision about life.
