I always thought that a man dominating society only existed in our country. Violence against women is still a big problem in our independent India and many of the women around us remain in constant fear.but when I read this novel I realised even the foreign countries face the same problem.The women are abused physically, mentally and morally.
The story is about a woman named Katie who arrives in North Carolina. She stays alone, speaks limited and tries to keep herself away from any type of relationship. She is afraid, scared to trust, and avoids to form any ties. Probably she is hurt, too hurt to trust again anyone and everyone. She has a small job to keep her going. What is it that haunts her, what is she scared of?
But life gives her a chance again when she meets Alex, a storekeeper with two children but will she be to give herself a this chance which life has offered, she is one of those who has been lucky to have it but will she be able to let go off her fears, walk away from past and accept the present of life? Her dilemma is broken and she is able to break her shell with the help her new found friend and neighbour.
But who is she who has been sent by the Almighty to bring miracle in her life :is another sweet addition to the story.
So the truth is again enforced:love can make miracles come true.probably less in reality and more in fiction, but reading something like this always is an amazing experience
So definitely a must read for all you guys. A different book with new flavour and new surprise from Nicholas Sparks
