The Departing Point by Santosh Avvannavar, Jyothi Byahati & Raghunath Babu Are: Book Review


Two people departed…
In search of love…
Leaving love in between”

This is the tag line of the book.

The Departing Point is a collection of seven love stories that neither have a happy ending nor highlight the sadness of love failures. Three common aspects of all of the seven tales are:

  • narrated by the boy in love
  • the couple in love does not get to stay together in the relationship for long and
  • the girl in love happens to be the reason for the break-up.


Hence there comes a departing point in their relationships which all of those men end up facing with both maturity and resentment. 

The authors have brought out the persistent mind set of men when it comes to love. At the same time, the wavering and indecisive natures of women towards relationships are also highlighted.
