Review Time - All That Is Unseen by Sahil Bhambri
All That Is Unseen
-Sahil
Bhambri
Illusion and Reality:
You live in illusion and the appearance of
things
There is a reality, but you do not know
this.
When you understand this, you will see that
you are nothing
And being nothing, you are everything that
is all.

I am speechless and wordless to express and
pen my thoughts after reading such a heart-wrenching tale. Where shall I start?
Everything about this book has become so dear to me!
To put the plot of the story in simple
words: Arav is the protagonist of the story. He is a fantabulous writer and an
unending hunter of art. He loves art so close to his life but he undergoes a
mental trauma. He is troubled because of that and he struggles to come out of
it.
This is when Arav meets Nasia, an Artist.
Arav feels attracted towards her in the very first meeting and later he
realizes, Nasia understands him so well. Truly, Nasia does and gradually they
are knitted to each other and fall in love. After knowing the problem of Arav
in depth, they go to Paris along with Samaira, Nasia’s sister. Everyone
believes that the trip has been a life-changing one for Arav, but the end will
give pain to your heart and will leave you in the verge of tears.
The two things I have loved most about this
novel are, first, the way how the author draws a thin line between the illusion
and reality, which is deep down connected with the life of a writer, here the
protagonist.
Second thing is the pure love that lives
between Arav and Nasia; a writer and an artist. The author has expressed the love
in a way which will make you feel that the person has lived through it. The life
of the tale is, indeed, embedded in the words. I cannot detach myself from the
tale, as the climax is such a tragedy. It literally broke my heart.
To comment about the narration, the author
has chosen a language level, which will both linger in your mind and hold you
to the tale. The setting goes well with tale, especially Paris, the city of
love. The character justification is also remarkable with each character having
its own specific and distinctive representation. The poems of the protagonist will
travel deep into your soul.
Dive deep into the tale, find the essence of the nectar and then, the story will never leave your heart.
