A marriage, an affair and a friendship
by Sabarna Roy
Once upon a time, there was a clear and conventional progression of couples to move through a relationship; they date, get engaged and get married. Over time, society evolved, so the traditional method of relationships also changed. If both partners are on board, there is no order and a fixed way to get committed to each other.
A marriage, an affair, and a friendship by Sabarna Roy is a contemporary fiction that reflects modern society's picture through the story of four characters, Rahul, Promita, Suroma, and Smaresh. The four decided to challenge the social norms for marriage, friendship, and affairs. Rahul and Promita, a married couple, portray the pros and cons of their choices in building a life together. Will the choices they make enhance or hurt their relationship.
Their story explores the inner vent of open marriage and true friendship. Wrapped with humor and amusing writing, Sabarna portrays the protagonists' profound emotions, behavior, and logic. All the characters feel realistic, making you think with their vivacious idiosyncrasies throughout the book. The story is told from different POV's first, second, and third person.
The topic discussed in the story is sensitive and will have many perceptions. However, the author handled the issue very well, without declaring any conclusion, and left the reader's mind in a state of thinking and pondering over many questions regarding lifestyle choices and, most importantly, the institution of marriage.
Overall, it is a short and thoughtful book. I am looking forward to reading more of his work.
