Book Review: Unmarry Me

Human emotions have always been a complex realm of exploration and explaining for even specialists in the field. Many writers have attempted to give words to the most complex feelings, and in the process, they created marvels that can never be forgotten. “Unmarry Me” by Vani Kabir is a book perhaps one of its kind, which focuses on life being merely a combination of black and white and everything else oscillating somewhere in between it. The cover of the book is an accurate introduction to this thought.

As simple as the title sounds, equally complicated are the different states of mind that the author has explored in the book. Somewhere in between writing poetry, she creates a poetic style of her own, which sometimes takes the shape of prose or merely a few lines. This book is like a counseling session that presents challenging situations every person may have gone through and can instantly relate to. To solidify her thoughts about strength and courage, the author uses illustrations that only depict that nothing is unconquerable; the only requirement is of the desire and intention to make better things happen. Many people are unable to give words or express the emotional states they have. This book can be beneficial to them and can counsel them through the healing process. Hence, there is no need to recommend “Unmarry Me” to any particular category of readers. Even readers of non-fiction can try reading this book due to the honesty it shows and dares to show the reality on the face of it.
