Chai at Midnight

Chai at Midnight is a fictional abstraction of thoughts ruffling though a young man's mind as he is caught up in frenzied encounters after meeting an appealing woman during a monsoon midnight. This happens at a small and remote railway station while he waits for another train and yearns for a cup of chai. What follows is a concoction of drama played out for a few seemingly endless hours in the middle of somewhere, nowhere. The theme portrays the contrasting and raw emotions of thrill, unspoken humor, defiance, desire, and valor that travel back and forth through his mind with supersonic speed despite the grave circumstances. In a philosophical sense, the book may inspire readers to explore the restorative potential of their cherished memories and face any crisis with constantly self-engaging lightheartedness.
