Product Highlights
पात्रयोजना, कथानक, विषय आणि पाश्र्वभूमी या सर्वच बाबतीत वैशिष्ट्यपूर्ण ठरणा-या जेफ्री आर्चर यांच्या कथांचा हा संग्रह. या सर्वच कथांतून जेफ्री आर्चर यांच्या लेखणीचे कसब आणि लालित्य दिसून येते. प्रत्येक वाचकाला या कथासंग्रहात स्वतःच्या पसंतीची एकतरी कथा हमखास सापडेल. यात रेल्वेस्टेशनवर समोरासमोरच्या प्लॅटफॉर्मवर झालेली नजरानजर व त्यातून फुलून आलेली प्रेमकथा आहे; प्रचंड आत्मविश्वासाने खेळलेल्या बाजीची कथा आहे, कायद्याला हवे तसे वाकवणा-या कायदेतज्ज्ञाची कथा आहे. तसेच, एका तरुणीची अत्यंत विलक्षण, सुरस आणि चमत्कारिक कथा आहे. शेवटची ‘द ग्रास इज ऑलवेज ग्रीनर’ अर्थात ‘दुरून डोंगर साजरे’ ही सर्वोत्कृष्ट म्हणावी अशी कथा आहे. प्रत्येक कथेच्या शेवटाला जेफ्री आर्चर यांनी एक नाट्यपूर्ण कलाटणी दिलेली आहे. म्हणूनच हा शेवट धक्कादायक वाटतो. यातील अनेक विस्मयकारक कथा या सत्यघटनेवर आधारित आहेत.
Description
THESE FOURTEEN STORIES SHOW JEFFREY ARCHER`S GREAT SKILLS WITH A WIDE VARIETY OF CHARACTER, OF SUBJECT AND OF SETTING, BUT ALL WITH THAT TRADEMARK TWIST IN THE TAIL. EVERY READER WILL HAVE THEIR OWN FAVOURITES: THE CHOICES RUN FROM LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT ACROSS THE TRAIN TRACKS TO THE CLEVEREST OF CONFIDENCE TRICKS, FROM THE QUIRKS OF THE LEGAL PROFESSION X AND THOSE WHO ARE ABLE TO MANIPULATE BOTH SIDES OF THE BAR X TO THE CREATIVE FINANCIAL TALENTS OF A MEMBER OF HER MAJESTY`S DIPLOMATIC SERVICE X BUT FOR A GOOD CAUSE. THE LAST STORY, `THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER`, IS POSSIBLY THE BEST PIECE ARCHER HAS WRITTEN, AND WILL HAUNT YOU FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.
