REVIEW

Narration

Together Forever To Never is a story of love, loss and everything in between. The story is narrated in a third-person point of view focusing on the main character Samar. The book is divided in six sections. Author has added beautiful poetry at a few instances which are the best parts of the book I found. The writing style is very simple, hence really easy read.

Time Period and Location

The book sets in 2015 and the following years. The story starts with the flashback of Samar who has lost his love forever. Most of the book revolves around two cities Gurgaon and Jaipur. Samar lives in Gurgaon and Sariyanka, whom he believes as his other half, lives in Jaipur. Through their professional connection, they come to know each other and share their feelings. Samar frequently travels to US, also Paris plays a tiny part in the story.

Theme

Together Forever To Never is a romance-themed book. The book depicts a ten-year-old pure relationship. When Samar is left alone, he finds love again. Author described that how Samar falls in love again and the highs and lows of this relationship. From little sensual details to the everyday communication between Samar and Sariyanka is described as the process of falling in love deeper. Author has written this book for a very meaningful insight on the meaning of success.

Plot and My Views

Talking about the plot, I think sharing anything about the plot would be a spoiler, but here we go. As I mentioned before, the story starts with the flashback of ten-year relationship of Samar and Monali. After those ten years, everything falls apart and Samar is left alone with his son, Aman. After recovering from the depression, he meets Sariyanka. They get along very easily and fall in love. Then the story unfolds with ups and downs in their relationship. Samar finds that there is something amiss and Sariyanka complains that Samar always doubts on her. This lead to the climax of the story where the very message of the whole story is hidden.

The first section of book is the best part according to me. It is as fast paced as it is beautiful. The poetry is amazing and something I would remember till a long time. Also, I share the same birthdate as Aman. Cheers! Author has elaborated five principles of human spirituality which he learned during recovery from his loss of love and for fighting against depression, which is worth reading.

Moving to the other sections, second part is a turning point when Samar finds love again and other three sections describe how they met, how they fell for each other and how they made promises. And the problems they face for being with each other.

The bad part of the book: The narration is focused on Samar and author narrates the sentimental states of his life, although it doesn’t feel complete. Why? Because, when Samar loses his love, Aman also lost his mother. Father-Son are left alone, although author has completely evaded most important part of Samar’s life – Aman, as any other characters in the book. The story gets boring and slow in fourth section, not that it was unnecessary but story didn’t hold its uniqueness that it could have held if only there was more to the story other than just a relation between just two characters. No depth to any other characters. (Also, I think author has something for all the dates he mentioned in the book.)

Despite all this, the last two sections of the book gives the real account of the emotions, relationship, love and deceit. Shows the reality of right-now situations of any other love story developing on the earth. That some of us are ready to love selflessly and some are always looking for better, adding to that, some uses the other for getting a rise in career.

Satish believes that success cannot be measured in terms of wealth or titles. The true measure of success is happiness that one is able to achieve in life.

Satish Goyal has successfully depicted what he believes and the glass full of emotions for the unrequited love Samar experienced. Sometimes, it is best to move on because once broken glass cannot be repaired to its original form same as trust. These days loyalty and selflessness is tough to find in a relationship where the individuals are looking forward to their own benefits which become analogy to an individual working in an organization only for his/her own benefits.

I would recommend this to youth and the teenagers who are looking for love story. Sometimes it is better to move on and understand that it happens exactly the way it must and will end when it had to and the way it should.

All in all, it was a light, quick read having something to tell you and I got to learn a few things from this book.


Happy reading!
