My Rating: 4.5/5
Stories Of Us by Bobby Sachdeva is a collection of 41 short stories. These stories are based on the common man and therefore we can totally relate to them. I really loved the story based on Notebandi, Ummidein – A Life Of Desires and The Third Gender especially.
One should definitely read these short stories. In this book, in the voice of a common man, the author questions our everyday practices in an unorthodox manner. These stories collection has inspired me to rethink the values that has been long etched in our belief system. This is an interesting read. You will find many relatable incidents. These stories are really thought provoking. I finished reading all the 41 stories in 3 sittings. I recommend this book to all those who loves to read stories on a common man.
