  • Book cover of Heart Escapades

    Heart Escapades meanders through the alleys of human relationships with the intensity and the banality of the times the author once thrived in. It seeks to mark the transcending nature of human beings from a stage of innocent glorification of love to succumbing to the tragedy of heartbreak to finally the possibility and the pain of experiencing what everyone un-admittedly does; morbid conventionality and the pretense that comes along with it. Alternatively, it borders on confusion, wonderment and tries to weave in altruistic motives.
