Speak about a book you’ve read

What the book is
When you read it
What it is about
Why you like to read it

Well, frankly speaking, I am not a voracious reader of books
But all my reading stands confined to periodicals, and Dailies and the like.
It does not mean that I haven’t read any book. I have read a few.

Here let me talk about a small book I read a few years ago.
It is an English novel titled Virtual world out
and it was written by Catherine choppelhall ………………….
It was a penguin edition published in India. I got it from an old books vendor

This book deals with the story of a housewife, who suddenly turns herself into a career woman thanks to the world of opportunities she happens to have by way of globalization.

As we know, globalization has opened up great chances for educated housewives. Though this development was a blessing, many housewives find it extremely difficult to run the show as housewife, career woman, wife, homemaker and above all a woman with personal likes and dislikes.

The book opens as the protagonist Cather Ren opens and reads a call letter for an interview. She stops in between, and dashes back to her yesterday, and she ruminates over her coming days. Her world was going to change all of a sudden.
It does in the following pages. What follows is a hilarious course of action the author puts the protagonist through.

With great humour and the same time not losing the seriousness of the plot,
The author takes us to a tour of life though the life of a modern working woman.
Her pleasures of working, pleasures of managing many things, possibilities in the pipeline, worries of a mother who fails to offer quality parent time her two kids, complaints of his working husband, the rift that develops between them on the basis of career milestones and so goes the list of events of the novel.

The writing is really a page turner, and the reading almost like living a life through the trails and travails of modern working woman. This book has great relevance to professionals like us and that must be the reason I went on engrossing myself in the pages of the book.
There are a lot may incidents in the novel which are touching and at the same time making us thinking. I left me thinking of the life, career, family, society, friends and my personal limitations and strengths.

All these of course make me like the author think of reading the book again, if time permits.
