Description
In the vibrant, ancient city of Benares, a reclusive young Brahmin named Samar navigates the complexities of life and love. This novel offers a poignant and ironic coming-of-age story, charting Samar's sentimental education as he grapples with disillusionment. Through Mishra's evocative prose, the city itself becomes a character, its energy mirroring the protagonist's internal struggles. 'The Romantics' explores themes of identity, tradition, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world.
