Book Description
An effort has been made in Love's Not Time's Fool to inspire the readers to face social and economic problems without feeling tense. The author has attached due importance to the rights of women and attracts the attention of the rich people towards the problems of widows, orphans and helpless old people. The theme of love has been painted with the colours of false love. extra-marital affairs and flirtations for merely sexual satisfaction but then the depth of pure love for marriage has been proved victorious towards the end. Richa is bold enough to accept her club-footed son Amitabh and pays money regularly to Nora to take care of this child. She hides this fact from her husband Malya who gets injured playing cricket. As an impotent man he continues to work hard for footwear products and dies with another hit of baseball in U.S.A. Richa, a young widow, gets married with her loving employee Abhilash. The positive side of life has aptly been elaborated in this novel so as to encourage readers to have patience in adverse circumstances. The terrible effects of the pandemic have been described in details and hence the novel is a criticism of life.

Time's Fool
Author: Glyn Maxwell
Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
ISBN: 9780618257560
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 420
Book Description
Edmund Lea perpetually rides a ghost train -- except every seven years on Christmas Eve, when he is allowed to revisit his home town. Like Wagner's Flying Dutchman, Edmund is condemned to eternity alone until he determines how to lift the curse upon him. Time passes, from 1970 to 2019, but Edmund remains seventeen, unable to age and watching the world grow older. He tries in vain to break the spell by way of true love, repentance, hedonism; he tries to change the world and he tries to die. Characters move in and out of Maxwell's story like Dante's figures in Hell, but Edmund's own Virgil is a careless and unhelpful poet, a portrait of the author as a student. The tale is told in formal terza rima, but its language and tone, its humor and sense of homesickness, are decidedly contemporary. It is a brilliant achievement.
