Good night, Baba: A Daughter and her father Growing up between Bedtime and Sleep by Sayan Dutta

 Good night, Baba: A Daughter and her father Growing up between Bedtime and Sleep by Sayan Dutta



This is a quiet depiction of sweet moments that are temporary where a father recites bedtime stories to his daughter. Though the kids grow, the essence of these sweet memories stays long.

These nighttime rituals do fade away with time, but a strong bond of love and affection is carved. I acknowledged the difference between weeknights and weekends. What struck me the most was the closing notes provided by the author. Each chapter evolved as a new lesson.

The writing is very simple and easy to read. At times, it felt like I was sitting beside them in that room, watching the scene unfold and remembering similar moments from my own life.

The writing style is intimate and minimalistic. It doesn’t overwhelm you with heavy prose; instead, it gently nudges your emotions, allowing you to fill in the gaps with your own memories.

Overall, it is a heartwarming read.
