"Human characters are amplified by their reactions to trauma. People who internalize trauma are celebrated and become heroes. People who succumb to trauma are

shunned and become victims. In the process, people who create trauma are forgotten and pardoned by default. That is a natural machination of time."

Book - Pentacles 

Author - Sabarna Roy 

The book consists of  a short story and four  poems. Story revolves around the character of Mr. Sen and evolving journey of his life. His mother left him when he was young,and later his baba  also died. He has gone through a lot in his life. Past did not stop him to achieve success but the inner turmoil still  scar his life. The story reflects his emotions in a very descriptive manner. Well you should read the book to know the entire story. Cover of the page is simple yet so beautiful. The only thing I could not understand is the presence of the poems in the end as they are not quite relatable.. The poems are written in a free style manner.. This book is short read and can be completed in a sitting.
