    "Author Abhaidev: The Literary Chameleon Breaking Genre Barriers" - Pioneer News 
    "Reading Anant felt like being inside someone’s head during a breakdown that slowly turns into a breakthrough." - Bookie_bear 
    "A raw, unfiltered dive into mental health, spirituality, and Moksha, written in a way that made it feel like I was reading someone’s 3 AM thoughts. So when I picked up Anant, my expectations were sky-high. And guess what? This book delivered. I devoured it like a midnight snack—couldn’t put it down!" - Book Reviews Cafe 
    "It is a book that will challenge your perspectives, force you to confront your own existential dilemmas, and perhaps even inspire you embark on your own quest for understanding" - Sudeshna loves reading 
    Book Description 
    ‘Anant’ is a poignant modern-day tale inspired by Hermann Hesse’s Siddhartha, that chronicles the life of an atypical man, the unusual eponymous protagonist of the novella. 
    While people avoid facing the void and life’s big questions, Anant wants to delve deep into them and explore the unknown. Though his questions are much like everyone else’s, he seems to have this uncontrollable urge to find all the answers. 
    In his quest for ultimate meaning, Anant explores every path imaginable, only to find himself more lost and emptier than before. Disillusioned, he tries to conform, to live like everyone else. But destiny has other plans. Encounters with extraordinary individuals reignite his desire to transcend the illusions of the material world, escape the world of Maya and touch the infinite. 
    Will he succeed and achieve the impossible? Or will he give up and turn into yet another bitter, cynical and disillusioned man, like the many others who set out on the same path? 
    ‘Anant’ is a fresh take on the classic masterpiece, a bold, fresh, pertinent lens on timeless struggles—one that speaks to the restless souls of our time.

    In this modern day fairy tale, seven sisters raised in the woods fight to keep their freedom. 
    Deep in the woods of western Finland, a bear hunter has raised his seven daughters to live off the land and steer clear of the trappings of life in town, like cell phones and a social life outside their family. When on his youngest Elga’s twelfth birthday the hunter is killed by his prey and their mother dies soon thereafter, the sisters are left with unpaid bills and a leaky house. 
    The tension between sticking to the wild ways their father taught them and submitting to well-meaning townsfolk’s efforts to “help” threatens to divide the seven sisters. The eldest, Johanna, tries to wield control, Elga feels tempted by the pull to education, artist Laura spends all her time dreaming up sculptures and exploring nature—but the sisters' trips to the farmer’s market to sell foraged mushrooms and their free time in their vast forest home bring them together in riotous fun. With evocative language and visceral scene-setting, readers get lost in world they’ve invented together and join the fight to protect it. 
    Inspired by Aleksis Kivi’s classic Finnish novel Seven Brothers (1870), The Bear Hunter’s Daughters is at once realistic and fantastical, an intensely sensory exploration of our essential bonds both with nature and with one another.
