"Anatomy of a Half Truth" is a poignant and thought-provoking exploration of love, relationships, and the human experience.

In a literary landscape often filled with idealized portrayals of romance, "Anatomy of a Half Truth" published by Leadstart stands out as a raw and unfiltered examination of modern love. Authored by Ghosh, this novel dives deep into the complexities of relationships, exposing their less flattering aspects with unapologetic honesty.


At its core, the novel delves into the aftermath of broken marriages, shining a light on the emotional toll they take on divorced individuals and their children. Through the eyes of four distinct narrators, Ghosh paints a vivid picture of intertwined lives and shared histories, offering a multi-dimensional view of love and its impact.


Talking about the novel, author Ghosh said, “One of the novel's strengths lies in its portrayal of the sensuality of romantic love. Ghosh uses vibrant metaphors to celebrate the many facets of love, challenging conventional notions and stereotypes. The narrative deftly navigates societal expectations, debunking the myth of the 'good girl' and challenging the idea that 'men don't cry'.” 

“What sets "Anatomy of a Half Truth" apart is its narrative structure. With its non-linear storytelling and multiple viewpoints, the novel mirrors the chaotic nature of memory and the complexity of human emotions. This approach allows readers to delve deep into the minds of the characters, gaining insight into their innermost thoughts and struggles” added Ghosh. 

Language is another powerful tool in Ghosh's arsenal. The novel is rich in imagery, vividly depicting each character's internal conflicts and desires. Secrets are revealed gradually, adding layers to the narrative and keeping readers engaged until the very end.

The novel also tackles taboo topics with sensitivity and depth. Through satire and dark humor, Ghosh critiques the corporate and social gossip mill, highlighting the ways in which rumors and gossip can affect lives. 

"Anatomy of a Half Truth" is a poignant and thought-provoking exploration of love, relationships, and the human experience.
