Padmini Dutta Sharma has recently come out with her 9th book titled ‘Sleeping with the arch rivals’. This book, like her previous ones have been published and distributed by Amazon globally. The front cover depicting a female face with multiple piercings has intrigued many bibliophiles, leading many to believe with conviction that the it must be either a crime thriller or an adult novel bordering on to erotica but in reality this book is purely on human emotions and their impact on human lives. Instead of following the typical mundane essay format, Padmini adopted a uniquely illustrative style for this book where although she has dedicated separate chapters for each emotion like Jealousy, Greed, Lust, Anger, Abhorrence, Fear, she has used the story telling format where her characters are in conversation with one another; in this way the author has been able to strike an instant connect with her readers.
Padmini who is a highly acclaimed and versatile author and poet has nine books to her credit, most of which are best sellers in the global market. She has penned books on different genres, ranging from fiction to non fiction, essays to poems & novel to short stories A sought after contributor for innumerable leading newspapers, literary journals, anthologies, web portals and magazines, she has been receiving rare reviews from the literary laureates, journalists, critics, and en masse readers for her expository style and lucid diction. Though she prefers to pen her thoughts in simple and crisp language what distinctly sets her apart from her contemporaries is her ability to prove her points by real life narratives and stories by depicting them through one on one dialogue/conversation. It is more or less like flipping through the pages of a detective novel where multiple characters discourse among themselves to bring about startling revelations, that otherwise would remain tucked in the closet as dark & forbidden. Her signature style has helped her generate instantaneous connects with her readers of all age groups and culture.
