The Dervish by Parinaz Jokhi | Book review

Book review:

"The Dervish" is a captivating and engrossing story. The story revolves around Solaymaan Daghestani, a humble dervish who embarks on a transformative spiritual journey. On his visit to India, he is a guest of an affluent family. 

During his dervish performances, his path crosses with Eira, an elegant heiress, setting the stage for a tale woven with themes of love and sacrifice. It is intriguing to read how their love blossoms and twists and turns in their lives. 

The author's account style is graceful and thoughtful, reflecting the otherworldly profundity of the hero. The language utilized is rich with symbolism, bringing out the supernatural environment of Kharanagh and the close-to-home scenes of Solaymaan and Eira.

With short parts and a perplexing composing style, the author welcomes the readers to dig further into a blossoming love story that energetically catches the centre-eastern quintessence in the plotline.

I enjoyed the scene where Solaymaan while performing on stage, loses himself in the beauty of Eira. Later, he asks forgiveness from Allah for not paying attention to his prayers. He gets a hint from God that something lies for him. 
Overall, it is a heartwarming read.
