Review
His seductive eyes were enough
for me to ignite the desire in me. He slowly came to me and bound my hands with
a rope and I lay helpless in the bed looking into his eyes. Then he opened a
bottle of honey and started pouring it on my naked body. The whole activity
seemed quite exciting to me. He kept the empty bottle aside and he came top on
me to lick the dripping honey. His proximity to me just aroused me enough and
just then… “Naina, where did you keep the bottle of honey?” Yes, that was
Indian mother-in-law yelling from the kitchen and asking me where I kept the
bottle of honey. That’s the reality of the BDSM lifestyle in India.
Forty Nine Shades Confused is a
tongue-in-cheek narrative that shows the stark reality of the BDSM lifestyle.
In India, people live in small houses and there are married couples who don’t
even have a separate bedroom to enjoy such intensive sexual activities. And
that’s what the book is all about. This short book of 52 pages is inspired by
the Hollywood movie – Fifty Shades of Grey. The lifestyle shown in the movie is
not exactly a rosy picture for many young Indian men.
The protagonist in this book is
no sexy, dapper dude but an accountant by profession and his struggle to find a
date is enormous. He fantasizes about BDSM culture and in reality, his
experiences with women turn out to be nothing but a nightmare to remember for a
lifetime. The author wants to give an idea to people who fantasize about BDSM
and its ill effects if one does not understand the concept well. It can be harmful
to the submissive especially if that submissive is a woman.
Some scenarios explained in
this book are quite hilarious. It’s a simple narrative to make people
understand and practical aspects of it. Everybody cannot be Christian Grey to
afford a yacht or a separate room to conduct sexual fantasies. The author armed
with his witty writing style reveals the true colors of the BDSM lifestyle.
That’s why he concludes his plot by saying that dating is not black or whites
but rather shady and grey.
Writing Style
Plain and simple! I do not know
why the author has used some Indian words like Dhobi, palak and I did not like
it.
The title and the book cover.
The title is apt. The book
cover is neither enticing nor suggestive.
Is the book price reasonable?
The book comes in an e-book
format and has only 52 pages. Again, I find it 150/- Rs. for a small book like
this is expensive.
Rating
