Book review
Title- Mystery of the Urban Monks
Author- Vikram singh
Paperback 142 pages
It an very unique read from all the books I read till date...a story with many twists and turns that cannot be predicted. The various journeys that are undergone by the various characters are nice to read and make the reader to yearn to visit Goa and Tibet. I like how after every part of the story, there is a small discussion between Yogi and John about varied topics. The story is amazing but I feel it goes by fast. Better elaboration of the story, especially the experiences of Tony and Asif would have been wonderful. The best part of the book is how the story ended and the conclusions drawn from them
So On a train journey to Varanasi, Yogi meets John, a writer and narrates him a story about three friends: Krish, Tony and Asif. Life takes them journeying into an eventful trip to Goa, which became a life-changing trip for them and taught them life lessons but this was not the end of learning. The search of an monk and desire to learn more took them to many more places. Eventually, where exactly did life take them and what's yogi's connection with them. Well for that you need to read the book yourself.
It was a short and light read, that takes you to a spiritual journey. Although the language of the book is very simple and there were tiny mistakes but you will enjoy the narration. The description of the places and mountains were really cool. Overall it was a good one time short read, which can be finished in just one sitting. If you are looking for a short light read then go for this one. Hope you will enjoy the book.. Happy reading
