#aotd
Tales/ writings/ stories written in approximately less than 300 words fall under the category of MICRO (short) FICTION. That’s a general defination..

 It’s not the size of the word count in the story, it’s the size of the story in the word count. 

SMALL IS BIG is one such Micro Fiction book.

It is part & FINAL installment of the TRILOGY #smallisbig

Beautifully written by @rafaadalvi released in Sep.2019;
it is priced at
INR 99/- on @amazon.kindle
&
INR 548/- on @amazondotin

It’s a collection of 100 micro tales & therefore, the no. of pages of the book, is but obvious.

It’s a PARAGON, a JEWEL.

For me, it is kind of UNORTHODOX, OFF BEAT type of storytelling & I really liked it!

The mini stories will make you LAUGH.. will make you REMEMBER someone or a memory..will make you ANGRY..will make you feel HELPLESS on certain SOCIAL issues..some tales would be DARK..some heart TOUCHING..some worth RE-READING..some will make you LOSE your SENSE OF TIME..be lost in your trail of thoughts..some will even give you GOOSEBUMPS..
BUT
All of them will make you wonder,
How can something so deep, be written in a few words..& that too so EFFECTIVELY..

The IMPACT is MASSIVE.. Everlasting.

The TITLE is On-Point & the COVER couldn’t have been better..with a Pawn looking at his image in the mirror, of The King.
Small is (definitely) Big.

It is not any particular genre, wherein some people may like or unlike it.. It has something for everyone, some or the other tale is bound to touch you deep down.

Beautiful excerpts..fragments..snippets..

All the TITLES are in alphabetical order..so it’s easier to locate a particular title/ word when you reread or refer it.

All in all a wonderful effort.
Please go through the images.

#thespeakingstone written by @ratnadipacharya is one such book where the TITLE itself is so enchanting, so alluring..

The COVER is very simple but mysterious & suits the concept perfectly.

26 chapters & 296 pages long, it is worth every minute we spend on it!

It is full of detailed information, pictures & signs & symbols..the effort put behind the script, shows, completely.

Check the pics for details

This is the 3rd book by the author.

A masterfully crafted thriller.
The book, on the last page, says END OF PART ONE means we can expect a part two or a sequel. So excited. What a fabulous read.

Ratnadip Acharya is the author of two successful novels, Life is Always Aimless… Unless you love it and Paradise Lost & Regained.

The protagonist finds an bygone piece of stone with strange images and Sanskrit epigraph.

His curiosity gets the better of him..& he becomes inquisitive..starts looking for clues & information.

On the other hand, the female lead reads about a secret in an ancient book..the book gets stolen..she is a researcher..so her obvious spirit-of-enquiry.

Fate has it written n they bump into each other..same interests..same intentions..so they start working in tandem to reveal the mystery..

What is the mystery ❓
What all adventures do they land up in❓
Have they put their life in danger❓
What would be the end of this marvelous venture❓

Read the book for that!

It’s fabulously written with minute intricacies.
Eagerly awaiting the sequel!

My happily ever after.
