Vichhoda REVIEW! #1479

Name of the book – Vichhoda

Name of the author – Harinder Sikka 

Step back into the tumultuous era of 1950, where the ink of the Liaquat-Nehru Pact still dampens the pages of history. Amidst the geopolitical shifts, Bibi Amrit Kaur’s life takes an unforeseen turn, echoing the chaos of the 1947 riots. Forced into a new land with a new identity, she embraces this chapter with grace, yet fate has more trials in store. As she navigates the pain of loss and separation, hope becomes her guiding light, illuminating a path of resilience and unwavering courage. From the ashes of adversity rises a tale of strength and sacrifice, penned by the acclaimed author of Calling Sehmat.

The book is based on partition and it has a lot of sadness in it. It is very emotional and heart-rending. The author narrates the 1965 Indo-Pak war and shows the resilience of Bibi during difficult times. She has done a good job of bringing the unseen and unheard voices into the light and making the reader witness the entire journey like a movie! The character of Bibi is so sensitive and deep that her actions remind us of the power a woman has. The story is based on a true incident and the author has done everything possible to portray the Riot scenario.

Rating of the book – 4.5⭐/5⭐
