For each one of us the boat of childhood is rocked at least once by the tide of love. Remember the first love? Remember the carefree childhood days filled with love, romance, passion and mischief? And then suddenly it is all gone. Vanished. It is a story of two school bosom friends who get separated only to be reunited many years later when one of them is in her death-bed. It deals with the uncomplicated life of youth, the ever changing curves of parent-child relationships, the life and times during pre-liberalization India in a small town, written around an axis of nostalgia and love. This book also brings in front the delicate and deep bond of a father-son and mother-daughter relationship that during the growing years remains mostly misunderstood and opens up with age like a pearl inside an oyster.
