The Indian Memsahib is BACK

Suchita Malik the author of The

 Indian Memsahib: The untold Story 
of a Bureaucrat's Wife

After the Rupa Incident, I expected this book to be at least mediocre. I had gone through so much distress and panicking and happiness to attain this book and what do I get? Nothing. Besides my mothers happiness for the correct print.

The Indian Memsahib: 

The Indian Memsahib is about an independent, ambitious women called Sunaina who falls in love and marries and IAS officer called Raghu who is extremely naïve and honest. In the process she sacrifices her job for the cause and travels along with her husband. She accounts all their travels, mixed with challenges and the ups and downs of life.  

My Opinion:

The Indian Memsahib: The untold story of a bureaucrat’s wife. Oh, really? Indian Memsahib my foot! Suchita Malik should have written The Indian Sahib: The Q & A story of an IPS Officer. Period. Nothing more and nothing less, this title best describes the book.

My example:

“What do you do in you job?” asks the wife.

“Oh, me? I  do this and I do that, but you don’t really wish to know the detail but,” he hesitates,

“oh! Please do tell! If you don’t, how will I continue with my life? You telling me about your job is a dream come true!” says the wife.

 “ anyway if you want to know then I…” The husband speaks dragging on and on and on.

“How do you do it?” inquires the wife again looking so hyper oozing with excitement.

 “I know everything. I am just so honest and determined to do my work.” Says the husband naively.

I hope that clears the explanation of my title. Three-Fourth of the book consists of Sunaina's questions and the answers of her husband Raghu. Another problem I faced while reading the book was the fact Suchita Malik tried to uses as many synonyms as possible.

For Example:  

Sunaina is sitting comfortably at ease and relaxed in the couch. Raghu comes back home he is in tension , worry is grasping him and he is extremely anxious.

I hope you understand what I want to convey. If you want to ignore my words and keep reading it please look out for wrong grammar, bad sentence formation and spelling errors, that at least might keep you entertained. Seriously, what do Indian editors do while reading…can they even read?

For being the topping among the worst books I have EVER read

Additional Information:

While surfing google I just found that there is a second book to The Indain Memsahib which just released this February. The new book is called the The Memsahib Chronicles: A story of Grit and Glamour. Its twenty years ahead from which the Indian memsahib ended continuing the story of Sunaina who now describes the privileges of her world, but doesn’t agree with them in a positive point of view.  I am ever so sorry Mrs. Suchita Malik but I sincerely don’t wish to read this, I am extremely sorry I cant give you another chance especially after reading The Indian Memsahib.
