In Loving Memory

    The book "In Loving Memory" had been received from The Tales Pensieve for its review.

      The book is a collection of memories, incidents, struggles which involves majorly the author, her father and her closed ones. The cover of the book personally reminds me of freedom struggle but the book throws light on the Painter and his magnificent work which has been recognized globally.

       The childhood memories of the author, the modern living style in the olden days, her attachment towards her dad are well written. The role of her dad's close friends and her dad's love for painting is also well explained. The book does speak high on the magnificent art work of author's dad and also has few pictures of her dad's beautiful paintings but some how lacks to get the complete grip of the readers.

      The writing style is simple and classy. The quotes from the literature by great writers recognized world-wide are used to compare the situations beautifully. The book is not so well organised but it covers all the emotions that a memories can give you. Be the strength her father gave her and the pain she felt when her father left.

    Recommended for the ones who would like to know more about the renowned painter born during the 1930s.
