The Body Myth

** spoiler alert **
           It does feel like a simple story but stuffed with philosophical topic and confusing characters. Like, it can really be simplified without the bits about some philosopher but oh my God, you do you, my Love. AND RAHIL. [Trembles.] He feels like some decorative husband????????? What the hell?????? His character just fades away into the background by the end of story.

IT WAS A HARD BOOK TO READ. MY BRAIN WENT BZZZZZZZZZ BUT HELLO I SURVIVED!

I just completed this book . I have been with this book for 2 days now and i still cannot place an exact niche here . Is it about the body and soul? Is it about the kind of relationships and love we can have ? Is it about spirituality? There's everything in this book . Everything we these days find in our neighbourhood . The writing holds you to the book , makes you think and research about the facts and wonder , that the thoughts you have today ar
E not new and it have been since a long time but only hadn't surfaced because of societal pressures. Every single character from Mira , Sara to Samina had a strong role to play in this book.

Mira is a teacher living in the heart of Suryam, the only place in the world the fickle Rasagura fruit grows. Mira lives alone, and with only the French existentialists as companions, until the day she witnesses a beautiful woman having a seizure in the park. Mira runs to help her but is cautious, for she could have sworn the woman looked around to see if anyone was watching right before the seizure began. Mira is quickly drawn into the lives of this mysterious woman Sara, who suffers a myriad of unexplained illnesses, and her kind, intensely supportive husband Rahil, striking up intimate, volatile and fragile friendships with each of them that quickly become something more.
