Commentary Toward Books Life... Love... Kumbh...
The story in Life...Love...Kumbh... is told from the perspective of the three main characters- Annant, Agastaya, and Aditi. Their paths cross on January 13, 2010. It is the day before the first of the eleven sacred baths of the Haridwar Maha Kumbh. The three characters meet each other and exchange their stories. They remember the days gone by and are unsure about what lies ahead. As the Kumbh Mela draws towards an end, all three of them are thrown into a challenging situation that they have to face. The book then follows their journey as they try and find answers for their personal quests all at the same time - on life, love, and the thirst for knowledge.Rating Out Of Books Life... Love...

Its a book tough to read and tough to put down. There was too much stoned philosophy, culture, yoga for my liking... I continued reading and liked the plot... the intertwined stories of characters... the passion... detachment... love... responsibilities... desire... ambition portrayed through them. 13th of January 2010, The background of Kumbh allows a different level of flow to the narration... it allows culture and philosophy to be discussed in a differential level... and at the same timeFirst and foremost, this is one book where I have no complaint with the content, but I was put off by the form. There are typographical and grammatical errors in the first few pages and it continues well beyond. I dont know if the editors hadnt touched the manuscript at all. The punctuation is clumsy, too many short sentences are clustered to form a huge one and the reader is bound to get lost at the end of each sentence. I am not fond of such style of writing, it strains my eyes as well as my
I found something in this book which made me rate it!! here is sharing a link from The Pioneer Sunday, today....The excerpts of life..love..kumbh..are given with a small review... It is in in 'Sunday Agenda of The Pioneer'http://archive.dailypioneer.com/sunda... What the Indian National Newspapers say about Life..love..kumbh.. "The book life..love..kumbh.. by aporva kala, is as much a story of the three persons, Aditi, Agastaya and Annant, as of the age old tradition of Indian spiritual
great read...go for it and be patient..the story evolves and grows on you..TOP CLASS WRITINGS...
Heavy Dose. Too many commas, too much to read as in too many different references. But wonderful, intellectually packed, truth about Jewish and Indian heritages. I'm still reading it, i'm not slow, it's just that the book is too FAST.
I am a student of literature and found the book close to James Joyce's Ulysses.... infact the author uses lot of literary references...words like Kinch..(Nick name of Stephen Daedalus in Ulysses), jejune... Upanishads are , it seems, the author's attempt to prove that, his book. life..love..kumbh.., too is a story of a day, but it is not an in consequent day, but is the most important day!!He goes further to use T.S Elliot's, opening of the Wasteland..april is the cruelest month... and says that
What a book!! Couldn't believe that it is written by an Indian author. Top class language, to the extent that even off course has a meaning! Kala invents words ans takes us to a mesmeric journey of love ,passions, death, life, passions, eroticism and what not. Three people with intertwined life explore India, the culture and the life with all its ups and downs. After reading this i find Coelho and the rest self help books as more theory and less practice. Go for it for the sheer depth of
