Random Ramblings

In Random Ramblings, the author delves into the deep recesses of the teenager's mind and mirrors to the world what goes on behind those bespectacled eyes--the cool demeanor; the casual, haughty attitude; and the don't-come-near-me-or-even-begin-to-understand-me look.

Human beings are a summation of their myriad and varied experiences. As we grow up, we are touched by people and experiences that ultimately mould us into the persons that we eventually become. Random Ramblings is a compilation of short stories that gives us a peek into the way a teenager thinks and feels about the world around him. Every young boy or girl wants to make his or her life large. Adventures, both real and imagined, of finding one's place in one's extended family and the anguish of relocating to a new city and slowly adjusting to the new place are some of the thoughts behind some of the stories. The book also explores the dreams and aspirations of teenagers. Displaying a wicked sense of humour, Adityesh writes in a tongue-in-cheek style, which infuses a certain freshness and naive optimism to the book. The stories in Random Ramblings are best defined as a guide book for both teenagers and their parents as they navigate the treacherous rivers of human relationships.
