In Love with Butterflies and Other Stories

Let me begin by stating that every story in this book is worth a read, for it has its own brand of twists and turns. The story “Entrapped I” shows the filthy face of our society where we could fall up to the extent of counterfeiting fake currencies for individual benefit. Trust me on this, that this story is not a piece of article from a newspaper, but has its grandeur of fun.
Then, there is the story “In Love with Butterflies”. No wonder why the book drew its title from this story. It has its own level of the lure. The story definitely will click with many of our young readers for its wild, though youthful appeal. The journey of Kinzang from the periphery of his little village to the bustling hubs of Phuentsholing, leading him to explore the unseen phase of human life will also, with a guarantee, make many readers smile making them flip the pages from their memories.
You will also encounter life’s harshest ironies, where a Chief Monk turns out to be the leader of a gambling bunch. There is this story that personally connected to me. The story “To Be Good Again”, which revolves around a narrator and a young man squeezed out tears from my emotions reminding me of my old days. Similarly, any one of these stories could also make you grin or sob turning back the time of your life.
