The Mango Tree

Shaji Jose Parayil

4.9/5 (18031 ratings)

Description:In today's modern world, what does it take to stay happy? “The Mango Tree” follows the story of Balu, a young boy growing up in a small Indian village, as he and those around him struggle to find their place in the world. Balu's story is interwoven with vignettes that follow the lives of the god Krishna and his wife Radha as they, too, struggle to understand our world. Spanning an entire lifetime of love, loss, and self-discovery, this story handles big questions with a delicate touch. Parayil takes the reader back to a time and place when things were simpler, only to catapult us back into our own modern world. In less than 100 pages and 100 years we watch the world begin to change as forests are replaced with highways, long hours of outside games and twilight conversations are edged out by televisions and video games, families are replaced by colleagues, and old, falling-down huts are replaced with beautiful homes with plenty of space to be alone, all through the eyes of a boy and a mango tree. Rarely do you see a book that handles the delicate concepts of faith, religion, and the afterlife without feeling contrived or “preachy,” but “The Mango Tree” asks all the right questions without trying to force an answer. While undoubtedly spiritual, this book isn't about choosing a religion; instead it focuses on the effect of faith on the believer. At its core, this story is about the timeless power of kindness and unconditional love. Moved along by prose that is beautiful in its simplicity, “The Mango Tree” is a story that lingers long after the last page.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
