A mirror of society

The book explores the complexities of life and consciousness through the suicide of Unni Chacko, a talented cartoonist.

While scrolling through Instagram stories, I came across a book review posted by a friend. The book in question was ‘The Illicit Happiness of Other People’. Her brief review hinted at the book covering the complexities of life and consciousness. Intrigued, I began reading the book and was engrossed in it for the next three days.
