The Story: 

What forces an innocent girl to become a sex symbol? Her desires? Or cruel fate? 

Is a lifetime enough—for avenging a betrayal? How do you hide secrets that never stopped haunting you? 

Can vengeance and secrets of your past devastate your present? How can long-buried crimes of yours suddenly raise their head? Can sinning be saving?

Is your spouse your soulmate? What if they never understood your feelings? Can you still live with them?

Lastly, does life give only two options? Live or die? What if there is a third?

In her anthology, Knitted Tales: A collection of emotions, Rubina Ramesh tries to find answers to these questions that are often from the heart and yet make the mind ponder over the solution. Or is it the other way round? Either way, Knitted Tales is a bouquet of emotions that is bound to touch both your head and your heart.

The Story:

Through the corridors of the Windy City’s criminal courts, single mother Libby Tucker knows exactly how far she’ll go to save her cancer-stricken son’s life. The undefeated defense attorney is prepared to take her fight all the way to the majors.

Circumstances force Libby to plead her case at the cleats of celebrity baseball player Banford Aidan Palowski, the man who discarded her at their college graduation. Libby has worked her backside bare for everything she’s attained, while Aidan has been indulged since he slid through the birth canal and landed in a pile of Gold Coast money. But helping Libby and living up to his biological duty could jeopardize the only thing the jock worships: his baseball career.

If baseball imitates life, Aidan admits his appears to be silver-plated peanuts, until an unexpected confrontation with the most spectacular prize that’s ever poured from a caramel corn box blindsides him. When he learns about his son’s desperate need, it pricks open the wound he’s carried since he abandoned Libby and the child.

All Libby wants is a little anonymous DNA, but Aidan has a magical umpire in his head who knows Libby’s a fateball right to the heart. When a six-year-old sage and a hippy priestess step onto the field, there’s more to settle between Libby and Aidan than heartache, redemption, and forgiveness.

About The Author

Windy City writer Elizabeth Marx brings cosmopolitan flair to her fiction, which is a blend of romance and fast-paced Chicago living with a sprinkle of magical realism. In her past incarnation she was an interior designer--not a decorator--which basically means she has a piece of paper to prove that she knows how to match and measure things and can miraculously make mundane pieces of furniture appear to be masterpieces. Elizabeth says being an interior designer is one part shrink, one part marriage counselor and one part artist, skills eerily similar to those employed in writing. 

Elizabeth grew up in Illinois and has also lived in Texas and Florida. If she’s not pounding her head against the wall trying to get the words just right, you can find her at a softball field out in the boonies or sitting in the bleachers by a basketball court. Elizabeth resides with her husband, girls, and two cats who’ve spelled everyone into believing they’re really dogs. 

Elizabeth has traveled extensively, but still says there’s no town like Chi-Town.

We Promote So That You Can Write 

The fight between the Idealism and Reality is what the story is all about.
A man haunted by his own pen name, who cannot live up to the image he has portrayed to the world, his struggle to be accepted by people for what he is....Musafir turns out to be more of a myth for all his believers.

The story started off at a slow pace for me. The girl, Tilotama, in love with the author who is very vocal about the current political scenario, she is very much smitten by his idea of perfect 'society' that she cannot separate the real from the assumed. Nor can she believe that he can be anything else other than what he portrayed in his writings. That is the reason she cannot accept Riddhhiman because he is too practical and human, a person who is selfish and materialistic. She still believes that he still has the power to reform the society if he becomes Musafir; when he himself does not think so.

Their love story is riddled with doubts and conflicts, she trying to look above his imperfections as Riddhiman and he trying to prove to her that Riddhiman is equally desirable. They marry in haste, yet it is Tilotama who can understand him perfectly and who can save him if at all he wants to be saved because she still sees the potential in him.

Riddhiman's complexity of character is revealed in the way he interacts with other characters in the novel. He has an intellectual connection with Mr. Sen, Tilotama's father, who is also inspired by Musafir's writing yet is very grounded to accept Riddhiman. Though he shares a very lovely bond with his mother, he fails as an "ideal" son, putting his needs first than that of his family's. He is indulgent because his family stands by him in all the phases of his life, which he takes for granted. The way he treats Gopal, his long time friend and secretary, shows how egoistic he is! In the end, he is not able to cope with all his shortfalls and feigns mental disability holding his family to ransom. Tilotama sees through his facade. It is her love for Musafir that she tries to put sense into him only to realize that Riddhiman can never be saved because he is too full of himself.
"Nothing is sacred to him,' as Tilotama says. It is this crisis of identity that makes him incapable of writing a decent piece of story.

Tilotama is THE heroin of the story all the way. She sticks to her idealism. She works for the upliftment of women and makes them self sufficient. She finds a mother and a friend in Krishnakoli, Riddhiman's mother. To her Krishnakoli is an example of a strong woman who has made it on her own, who works for others selflessly, Though initially she blames Riddhiman for his mother's death, she is also quick in rectifying her judgmental attitude. She is unapologetic in her ways when she sees through Riddhiman's lie of pretending to be losing it and becoming suicidal. She does resurrect him, only to lose him permanently. I loved the ending when she decides to let go rather than fight for a shadow of what Musafir was as Riddhiman is still unable to come into terms with who he really is.

I loved the complexities of the characters and the way they are unraveled. Paulami has taken care to dissect the layers of Riddhiman and also Tilotama's thoughts, weighing of pros and cons very objectively.  The romance is strong yet does not overshadow the crux of the story. It is the strength of the women in this story that shines in this novel. A well written story.

MY THOUGHTS:

This book should be named as "50 Shades of Love."

I had read this book when it was released as an ebook sometime back...and when I started reading this again, they all came back to me - the stories, the emotions and the feelings.

Not two stories are alike though they are all based on love.

We have a whole range of colours, a spectrum of emotions. 

The characters are so real and they could be your story or mine. I could relate to the pain, the sadness which is portrayed so well. They actually brought tears to my eyes.

The micro poems at the beginning of each story is like an icing on the cake.

There is no one story which I call say is my favourite as all of them are equally good.

 

Overall a light read...love in all its glory :)
