Vimukti
Translated title: Liberation
Author: Timalsina, Jhamka
Genre: Family Saga / Social Novel
Stories of life experience are also of the elite, and of the common people. Many may think that people who appear elite on the cover do not have sad stories, no compassion and pain worth writing. But the main character of this novel, who is an elite in himself, says, 'The character must be created, the story will be created by itself.'
'Vimukti' is the story of such an elite old man. Like the setting sun, he lives the cold present alone on the veranda of his vast bungalow. Before his death, the same character writes in his diary, 'I have seen people turning into ashes in the presence of a special funeral pyre. I have also seen grand funerals held with national honors. I have met people who turned into ashes alone, without anyone else. Sometimes I have made some people cry without seeing anyone to make them cry. At the end of their lives, someone to make them cry is needed.'
The present described in the novel is not only that of a certain character, but also of the entire contemporary society. Those who have seen it have seen it, some have even written about it. How much more difficult it is to experience that life than to see and write about it! 'Vimukti' is a tragic tale of that experience
