Interview

1. What drew you to the specific themes of identity and mental health in your book? The strength to fight against all odds and understand that success is never out of reach if you truly, passionately pursue it. Most characters in my novel are pursuing success relentlessly. Mukta, Prem and their four daughters are all fighting against many odds, including a lack of money and opportunities. Why are they doing this? Because success in its varied forms gives individuals their identities. When facing setbacks, perhaps related to age and personal and professional loss, it pays to be armed with persistence. We persevere to succeed because somewhere deep down, that is how we identify ourselves. I’m a big fan of these things: introspection, individuality, independence, self-growth, facing challenges and overcoming obstacles, etc. Perhaps that drew me to this theme. As for mental health in my book’s context, many reviewers have said the “struggles of my characters feel personal,” w...

Simply Unputdownable

Do you ever come across a book that leaves you smiling and inspired? Things are tough, but stories like this remind us we’re tougher. Butterflies of Success by Ranga Iyer is an engaging and heartwarming read. The highlight I loved about this book is the hope it instills. It takes a very real issue—poverty—and shows us how it can be battled with sheer grit and unity. The storyline is relatable, well-paced, and peppered with moments that tug at your heart. The author has written this story with compassion and keen insight. What impressed me most is how effortlessly the emotions were made to feel real. The narrative flows like a quiet stream—calm yet powerful. The writing is fresh, smooth, and full of small, meaningful moments that make you stop and think. It's the kind of story that doesn’t scream for attention but earns your respect as you keep reading. This book is a must-read for fans of stories about strength, dreams, and second chances. I found this book to be unexpectedly mov...

Author"s Interview with the author of book The Ferryman

1. What inspired you to write this book and explore the themes of self-discovery and personal growth? I do not think the book explores the said themes. On the part of inspiration – I was actively searching for ideas during the lockdown period and when I found the core idea – which was very exciting to me – I started right away. 2. Can you share a memorable moment or experience that influenced the creation of this story? The idea itself came to me as a nightmare. A nightmare that woke me up in a bit of panic. It stayed with me even after I had calmed down. Trying to sleep again, I slowly mulled over it and I saw how good an idea it would be to do this as a book. That same night I tried to look for a starting point for the idea I had and soon enough I remembered a personal experience of mine. Next morning I put these two together and started the book. 3. How do you approach creating relatable and authentic characters in your writing? With ‘The Ferryman’, the main char...

A Disturbing Delight

Ever read a book so haunting, you can’t stop thinking about it? Reading The Ferryman: A Novel was like stepping into a lucid dream you can't escape from—one where every whisper of wind, every shadow in the corner, hints at something sinister. The book weaves together elements of horror, psychological suspense, and fantasy into a narrative that is deeply unsettling and wildly addictive. What makes this book stand apart is its ability to maintain intensity without ever going overboard. There’s no cheap thrill here just a beautifully constructed, slow-burn terror that digs its way into your subconscious. I especially loved how the author explored the blurred boundaries between what’s real and imagined, creating an almost claustrophobic experience. Each page reveals a little more of the protagonist’s descent, making you question what’s real right along with them. The characters are fleshed out, the atmosphere is eerie yet immersive, and the plot never loses its grip. The suspense sim...

In Conversation with author of the Book : The Warrior Owl Perfect , Yogesh Nair

1. What drew you to the specific themes of identity and mental health in your book? The themes of identity and mental health are deeply personal to me. I’ve always been fascinated by the way we shape our sense of self, especially when faced with adversity. In The Warrior Owl, Advay’s journey is about navigating his own internal struggles—finding who he truly is amidst trauma, pressure, and uncertainty. Mental health plays a big role in that, because so many of us face invisible battles with our emotions or past experiences. I wanted to show that confronting these struggles, and learning to accept and heal from them, is a powerful and universal journey. These are themes that resonate with so many people, and I wanted to create a story that feels real and relatable to anyone who’s ever questioned their identity or struggled with mental health. 2. Can you describe a character or scene from the book that was especially fun or rewarding to write? One of the most rewarding scenes to wr...
