Teething
by Megha Rao
I had expectations from this and well.. I am not impressed.
But the reason is not the writing.. it's the synopsis and the false expectation it sets, and the execution!
The synopsis says it is a story in verse but it wasn't a proper story flow at all. The poems are random, not following any timeline, so it is hard to understand the exact course of events. Also, the poems are more about their mother rather than the main character, as written in the the synopsis.
But, if you see individually, the poems themselves are good! Megha Rao's words really dig deep. You can tell she is good with the words. I have highlighted so many lines.
I just wish it was marketed correctly or rather differently.
