Book Review:
Half Life written by M H Rahman is the debut
book of the author and for his first book he has done an exceptional job. His writing is
edgy and impactful. I hold no qualms in declaring that M H Rahman has arrived
in a great way in the literature world. The way in which he has handled the story is
almost perfect and the way in which he has described everything is
praiseworthy.
The story gyrates around Parker Williamson, a
lawyer by profession, who had a dream to win back his lost property. Just like a coin, his dreams also had two
faces and the other side is a nightmare. He sees two kids playfully drowning a
ten month old baby in the swimming pool.
When everything thing was falling in its place
suddenly a major accident happens and he
loses everything. When his mission to win back the property was successful, he
comes face to face with his nightmare.
The
character of Parker is bang on. He is
perfect and engaging. The entire book revolves around him. He is a lawyer,
friend, son and a lover boy in short a complete package. Nyah is sweet and
adorable. She sleeps with her teddy which makes her more lovable. The other
characters like George and Roselyn are also good in their places.
The
pace of the story is perfect and the plot is arousing and will definitely keep
the readers on their toes. It’s nor entirely a love story neither a thriller
completely. This book is a perfect blend of emotions, love, thriller, rage, trust,
pain and vengeance. The descriptions are so perfect that you can actually
imagine each and every scene in front of
your eyes. The length of the book is just perfect and the readers will be
forced to turn pages one after another. For me the best part about this book is
that the story is constantly progressing with twist and turns. There was NO LOW
POINT in the story.
There
is nothing wrong with this book. Just a little more finishing at some part and
brush up and then this author can do wonders.
I
believe this “Half” is better than the other “Half” which is storming in the
market these days, just because the writer of that “Half” is famous beyond
limits. Half life will surely not be a disappointment for any reader. Read it for the suspense and emotions filled
inside the story and most important read it for the honest and extra ordinary
efforts of the author, In short IT’S A MUST READ.
