Book: Bayan
By: Pramudith D. Rupasinghe
Blurb:
In the serene tempo of classical Soviet literature charmingly merged into modernity, Bayan is a unique blend from among the work of Pramudith D Rupasinghe.
Bayan begins in the sunny Ukrainian summer and ends with a hidden, deeply meaningful message. It is not only the story of a strange, bearded old man who finds solace and a soulmate of sorts, in a traditional string instrument, while facing a common narrative of his era; it is a commentary on life, and a celebration of the ultimate coming of age.
It juxtaposes the failure of physical strength and faculties to the accumulation of immense emotional fortitude. It lulls you into feeling safe in spite of the passing of transient seasons, the waning of political ideologies and the inevitable disintegration of the corporeal being.
Bayan tells about changing world`s order, revolutions and the ravages of time, the music of life will go on.
Review:
Bayan is an intriguing and a compelling read. The book is a blend of cultural, political and historical revolving around the USSR. The book talks about experiences and how a person learns from them. It talks about emotions and wisdom.
The book revolves around an old man who has lived his life with the drift of ups and downs which are not just personal but political and emotional too.
The plot of the book is well developed and the author portrayed each and every event in an amazing manner. The characters are strong and that adds upto the beauty of the book. The language used by the author is lucid.
If you are a good reader who can imagine the events in the book then this book will make you fall in love. The story is neither too long nor too short just appropriate as it should be. The cover and the title are 💯 suitable.
