Human bonds and emotions are an important part of both human lives and also in literature. Some authors like Nicholas Sparks bring out the pathos through their words and not just get closer to the heart of the reader but also appear much more stronger and realistic. Dr. Farah Naqvi in her short story, "Jhumki" has done much the same. The story is short but with a lot of depth. The author juxtaposes human emotions with the dark realities of life which makes the story more relatable for any human to their life.
The emotion of the motherly instinct in a woman is explored at length in the book and it is highlighted almost throughout the story. For all those who like stories with close depiction of emotions and having the ability to make you shed a tear or two must read this story. It can be read in one go and it also has the ability to hold on to the reader because of its smooth narration. The artistic ability of the author is highlighted by the realistic manner in which she has painted the characters of the canvas of life, its realities and its complexities.
