Book excerpt: Poornima's stories portray her keen observation and insights into a woman's psyche and depict the dynamics in a very palpable manner. In the one titled, she has captured the moments of ennui, boredom staleness and predictability of married life with great vividness and a whiff of freshness; it has elements of a thriller and the suspense is built up bit by bit to climb to a crescendo. The reader is intrigued and pleasantly surprised to identify with these feelings and the characters. Sulekha Kumar, Freelance writer, Columnist, Books reviewer Candid, yet sublime interpretations of the relationships, highlighting illusions of love and loyalty; emphatic affirmation towards the end of the stories is developed naturally by the reader. Dr. Radhamani Gopalakrishnan, Former Professor of English, SV University, Tirupati Written at everyday conversational level, these stories assert traditional love in modern background revealing truths we have been refusing to see. The simple yet thought provoking plots leave the readers amazed and engrossed totally in the ultimate analysis. Nirmal Joshi, Author of ‘Kick out the Teacher’ and ‘Wah Bharat’ Only space can ensure togetherness in any relationship; but what if that space becomes emptiness? Meet this couple who panic when they realise how effortless it is to associate words like love, romance and sex with anyone but the spouse; A college girl’s disillusion while attempting to understand the nuances of love; A husband who walks an extra mile to make his wife redeem her life; A teenager trades her womb to save her fragile love; At thirty-five, with receding hairline and obesity, a man is startled when his college beauty queen tries to seduce him; Can the love born out of sympathy survive? Anyone but the Spouse! is a collection of few such stories that might be happening around us but are eclipsed by casual domesticity and are waiting to be accepted.
