Hello everybody,

I would like to introduce you to a new book called The Day Was Yet to Break written by a man who experienced the effects of the partition named Kulbhushan.

You can read the first chapter of the book at thedaywasyettobreak.com and visiting the "Preview section".

About the book :

Set during the troubled times surrounding the partition of India, The Day Was Yet to Break is a compelling tale of a man called Fakira and his struggles with his destiny. Baffled by his own identity, his life takes him from the land now called Pakistan to India then to Canada, in search of ever elusive happiness and peace. Though a work of fiction, The Day Was Yet to Break is inspired by the multiracial beliefs, superstitions and aspirations of the people coming out of that painful period of the partition of India. These in turn define the relationship between Fakira and the various characters he meets on the journey of his life.
I thoroughly appreciated this book and would like to share my experience with you. I think it will capture most audiences ranging from 16 years and older of any culture that is somewhat familiar to the cultures and locations of India. This book would also make a great gift for a close friend on a birthday or similar occasion. Please read the preview and support the author by purchasing the book at thedaywasyettobreak.com.

Thank you,
Akhil
