About the Book

The book’s central theme revolves around the preparation for competitive exams in Allahabad and the deep emotional bond that developed with an Allahabadi girl during postgraduate studies, leading to love and the pain of separation. Nothing in this book is a lie; only a few additional elements have been included due to word arrangement. Although some parts of this book were written during my undergraduate days at Banaras Hindu University, most of it was penned in Allahabad. The greatest significance of this book is that it will draw tears from the eyes of those who have ever longed for someone.

The book offers a profound example of how love can change human nature. My affection, loyalty, and feelings for that girl are even stronger today, which you can see reflected in the book. While it speaks of love and beauty, I can confidently say that a brother with his sister, a mother with her son, or a father with his daughter will have no hesitation in reading it.

About the Author

I am Prateek Pandey. I was born on August 15, 1993, in a small village called ‘Thana’ in the Varanasi district (Banaras), Uttar Pradesh, into a farming family. I grew up in the village itself and completed my primary and middle school education there. I completed my matriculation and intermediate education in the science stream from ‘National Inter College Pindra.’

I pursued my Bachelor’s degree in Hindi (Honors) from ‘Banaras Hindu University’ and then moved to Allahabad to prepare for competitive exams. During this time, I completed my Master’s degree in Hindi from ‘Nehru Gram Bharati Deemed University, Prayagraj.’

I have a strong passion for writing and traveling, and in this journey, I have made small trips to four states. Although I started writing during my undergraduate years at Banaras Hindu University, most of my book was completed in Allahabad, now known as Prayagraj.

I love village life, enjoy spending most of my time with my family, and have a keen interest in gardening as well.
