It took me a while to finish this one! Nevertheless, it proved to be a thought provoking story for me.
This book, The Leeway Towers by Author Abhi’s Singh, highlights some aspects of the social, cultural and political issues being faced globally today!
The fact that the whole world is running out of resources and the time isn’t far when there will be wars among nations to fight for things as basic as water, food and shelter. So the inspiration of the author is quite evident. And I’m glad someone finally picked up the much needed issues to be addressed.
Through the story of a young boy named Kali, and his grandpa as the main characters, the author has perfectly described the scenario in 2 parts, in the years 2020 and 2034. The book is slow paced but every paragraph, everything about the story makes you think about what the world is becoming today and also works as an eye opener, to take precautions because if we don’t, then we might have to face the consequences regardless of whether we are at fault or not.
I loved the narration, however at some points there were details which kinda felt dragged, but all in all the story was a great read and most importantly, I learnt a lot from it.
Title and cover are also quite intriguing and attractive, which is why in the first place I bought this book!
Cheers to Abhih for curating such a powerful book.
