📝 About The Book

“Humour Rooted in Everyday Struggles”
In this captivating collection, Anand Yadav explores the bittersweet humour found in the lives of common people. The protagonist in each story struggles to lead a simple life, often facing ridicule from others. His efforts to bring order to his life often result in chaos, turning him into the object of laughter. But beneath this humour lies a deep sense of compassion, as the characters are caught in situations where their innocence and attempts at consistency make them vulnerable to exploitation by smarter, more selfish individuals.

Yadav's stories are infused with humour, not through exaggerated language, but through the ordinary events and relationships we encounter in daily life. The humour in these tales highlights the contradictions in human nature, showcasing how a neutral observer might find amusement in the cleverness of others, even as they silently acknowledge the pain of the characters.

The stories in this collection are filled with the freshness of everyday experiences, each one revealing the complexities of human interaction and the mentalities of people around us. Yadav's ability to blend humour with compassion brings to light the struggles of ordinary individuals, making this collection both humorous and thought-provoking.
