Butterfly Effect and Other Short Stories
Author: Prachi Saxena
Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN: 1649517300
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
In the chaos theory, the butterfly effect is described as the phenomenon wherein the slightest change in the initial conditions of a nonlinear system can cause great changes at a later stage. In simpler terms, all that we do, the smallest decisions we make, the people we meet, create a ripple effect on the story of our lives. A simple decision of taking a right instead of left or bumping accidentally into a neighbour—everything has consequences. Every encounter, no matter how insignificant, modifies our story in a unique way. The Butterfly Effect and Other Short Stories is a collection of the tales of such encounters—some life-changing, some life-affirming, and some that happen long after the life is lost.
