Clothes by Chitra Divakaruni (Review)

 

Title: Clothes

Author: Chitra Divakaruni

Type: Short Story

Collection: Arranged Marriage

Published: 1995

Characters: Sumita, Somesh Sen


Review:


Are woman really aware of their capabilities? It is really necessary for a woman to explore the world, to find and make her own identity. She must not be confined within the walls. She has every right to live a life as she wants. Clothes by Chitra Divakaruni remarkably explores this idea. In this short story, Sumita, the heroine decides to search for her own identity against all the restrictions society is trying to lay upon her. The story is a part of a collection of short stories titled Arranged Marriage.

 

Sumita is soon going to marry a man who lives in America and runs a store for living. She is reluctant to leave behind her birth place and India but she must go with a husband as an ideal bride should. Soon she adjusts herself in the modern life of America. She even has dream of making her own identity. But circumstances perhaps aren’t in her favor. She must stand up for herself. She cannot spent her whole life within the walls. She wants to explore the world. She wanted to make her own identity. Will she able to overcome all the obstacles on her way?

 

The story presents the importance of identity. The different phases of Sumita’s life are symbolized by clothes of different colors. A woman must make her own identity in the world. She should work, which ultimately would help her to know her own worth. It is important for her to be aware of her abilities and potential. She must be independent in a way that she can take her own decision without being influenced by anyone.

 

I personally love the story. Language is simple. 


Recommendation:


  • A must read
  •  Can add to TBR list
  •  Can read once
  • Hard, but worth the read

  Title : Without Merit Author : Colleen Hoover Type : Novel Chapters : 18 Characters : Merit Voss, Sagan, Honor Voss, the Voss family     Review : Who isn’t got family issues? Parents can make mistakes too. Without Merit by Colleen Hoover portrays the same idea.

The Cheat Sheet (Book Review)

Title : The Cheat Sheet Author : Sarah Adams Type : Novel Published : 2021 Chapters : 32 + Epilogue Characters : Bree Camden, Nathan Donelson, Jamal, Prince, Dylan, Levi, Lily.   Review :   Love is a beautiful thing. A friendship can turn into a relationship. But if it doesn’t work out, there’s no way going back to friendship. The fear of it is a torture in itself. Sometimes you can’t tell a person that you are in love with them because you don’t want to lose that person. The Cheat Sheet by Sarah Adams follows the same idea. Bree and Nathan had been in love with each other since the day they met, but they are afraid that if they cross their ‘friend zone’, it may turn into a horrible disaster. Both had assumed that the other one is not interested in turning it into anything romantic. Bree and Nathan are happy in their ‘friend zone’ because they don’t want to lose each other. For them, friendship is more important than a relationship. Both has accepted the f...
