Mohini Kumar has written a masterpiece in the form of the present novel. As I turn the pages of "Leaving Behind," I am struck by the raw emotion and honest portrayal of the human experience that unfolds within its covers. The story follows Suraj, a man who finds himself grappling with the reality of losing the love of his life, Mallavika, to cancer.

As the central character, Mallavika's presence is felt throughout the novel, even after her death. Through Suraj's eyes, we witness the pain and heartbreak that comes with losing someone so dear, and we are reminded of the fragility of life and the importance of cherishing every moment we have with those we love.

But "Leaving Behind" is not just a story about loss and grief; it is also a story about resilience and the power of human connection. Suraj's journey is one of struggle and hardship, but it is also one of growth and transformation. With the help of his friends, he finds the strength to move forward and rebuild his life, one step at a time.

Throughout the pages of this novel, we are treated to a masterful exploration of the human experience, with all its complexities and contradictions. It is a story that will resonate with readers on a deep and personal level, reminding us of the beauty and tragedy of life, and the importance of holding on to hope even in the darkest of times.
