The theme for today's review

"Love and hope can conquer hate." -Barack Obama
2047 The Unifier is a futuristic fiction novel in which one
proposes this idea of bringing peace between two nations which were separated
100 years ago, majorly caused by colonists for their own benefits. The Unifier
is a fast-paced story led by love that offers you with the voice of youth towards
self-absorbed politicians, which leaves you with that ray of hope for peace. The
story is narrated in third-person point of view and writing style is very easy
to understand.
The story takes place in the future version of India, London
and Islamabad. India is more developed in aspects of infrastructure and
technology but issues remain the same that of communal hatred fueled by
politics as regular dosage. And that of warmongers at both sides of the border while
they have nothing to lose.
The author Rashmi Trivedi has plotted the book very
brilliantly taking into account the gravity of the subject. She neither did
exaggerate nor did she understate the situation. Each subplot succeeded by
another and that’s how the big picture played out.
As we quote Martin Luther King Jr. “Darkness cannot drive
out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can
do that.” The love between Karan─ son of an Indian war hero and Fiza─ daughter of a
Pakistani foreign secretary initiates the healing movement in both countries. All the main characters were portrayed very well, they had clear
goals with resolute determination.
Author Rashmi Trivedi made a point throughout the book that,
is it really too difficult talking and speaking about peace? At least for me,
it was a perfect read seeing the situation of our country today. The book was
highly relatable to this point of time where we the youth is tired of this
hatred and taking peace initiatives to make the world a better place for our
future generation, but some self-absorbed warmongers are trying to shut them
up. Here’s the difference between the real-world and this novel’s futuristic
fictional world, in the latter one majority common public wants peace and not
war.
The best part of this novel was the climax, how the author
wrapped it all in the end, it was the most realistic part of the book. One
thing that I noticed was, the entire novel somehow didn’t reflect the world the
author was talking about, it felt inconsistent. However, I would say, congratulations to the author because, it must not be difficult but it is also not
easy putting forward such an idea, which can be considered vague but instead is
sharp and attainable. Here I am talking about spreading peace and love. Globally.
The final words, I really loved reading this book because it
was really progressive, political aspects were made clearly visible though
which has nothing to do with the real world. It is pure fiction. The romance
in this chaos was a competent cliffhanger that kept me hooked till the end. All in
all, it was a fascinating read and it teaches you to be receptive.
‘Try to talk
of love and peace, not of hate and war.’
Happy Reading!
