The Mirror Within

Bol

Compelling story of a village boy from southern India who rises against all odds to the pinnacle of medical education in three different countries. This true story is narrated by his lifelong friend who lived next door in his village and enthrals the reader with numerous anecdotes and detailed descriptions of village life, its traditions and festivals. More importantly, it is the story of a mother's immense love for her son that she could impart only for a short span of the first ten years of his life that acts as a silent guide at every step of his life. The book leaves the reader wondering how much of the impossible hurdles that he encounters and the characters that keep showing up from nowhere to help him were pre-destined vs the result of his immense desire, hard work and determination to manifest his mother's three wishes. By calling the two parts of the book as 'Life before' and 'Life after', the author has paid a wonderful tribute to his mother. A book to be treasured! Thoroughly enjoyed reading it!
