The Secrets We live in by Fazle Chowdhury |Book review


 Book review: 

"The Secrets We Live In" by Fazle Chowdhury is a masterful tale that lingers in the mind, offering a thought-provoking journey through the complexities of power, love, and self-discovery. It excels in its compelling character development, intricate plot, and the seamless integration of political and personal elements. 

The story is set in Paris, the story revolves around Ambassador Zain Auzaa, known for his lavish lifestyle. With the help of his Chief of Staff, Salima Abbasid, he is involved in many clandestine dealings. A crucial nuclear deal is about to go underway when the Zain finds himself embroiled in a murder investigation. As his role comes under spotlight, the ambassador finds himself caught in web of conspiracies and lies. What will the future hold for him?

Right from the start, the story draws you in the world of espionage and political games. Blending politics, suspense and drama, the story is a perfect thriller with many moving pieces. There are several twists and turns along the way and the larger picture becomes clearer only towards the end, making it a satisfying climax.

The novel's ability to immerse readers in a world of complexity and uncertainty is commendable. The dense language and extensive cast may be challenging for some readers, potentially hindering the overall accessibility of the book. Addressing these aspects could enhance the reading experience.

As a reader, I appreciated the challenges posed by the dense language and intricate plot, finding them rewarding in the overall context of the story. The novel's unique blend of political intrigue and personal drama makes it a standout in its genre.
It felt incredibly genuine and precise in depicting numerous conspiracies and political dramas that exist in real life.

 Despite its challenges, the novel stands as a testament to the author's storytelling prowess, leaving readers captivated long after the final page. Highly recommended for those seeking a literary adventure that transcends the boundaries of traditional genres.

Any thoughts, or have you ever tried to tame any animal? I remember watching circus shows organised once a year in the city's open area for all the locals to enjoy. There I used to cherish the person who tamed the elephants or the lion (if any). But today I thought of taming my mind. Every second our thoughts are randomly moving and giving us goosebumps. Nowadays people have so many threads of work looming in their minds that they feel like completing but fail to prioritise. To dive into a river is not easy. But only a few people have the calibre to do that. The same is true with diving in your mind. This practice needs calmness of mind and anxiety levels to be very low. I had heard about meditation and its techniques to apply in your daily routine, but when I stumbled upon this book, my myths w...
