An Interview with Author Aman Talwar Akhila Saroha: I would like to begin by congratulating you on the publication of “The Hidden Gems.” How has the response to the book been so far? Aman Talwar: Thank you. From the time the cover of the book was unveiled to the time when the book is out there for everyone to read, I have found an inquisitiveness in my readers to get a copy of it. They are quite intrigued and want to unearth as to what lies in it. I just hope that my writing is able to live up to their expectations and their reading experience is as enjoyable as was mine while writing it. Akhila Saroha: What led to the idea of writing “The Hidden Gems”? Were there any events that inspired the work? Aman Talwar: All the facets that I have written about in my book are primarily based on our day to day living. These bejewelled moments are scattered all around us. All I did was tried to unravel the aura knitted around our thought process and carve them into words. I truly believe in the magic of words and genuinely hope that the way the experience of writing this book has helped me elicit these scattered precious pearls, in a similar manner the readers of the book are also able to gaze beyond the accustomed patterns of living. Akhila Saroha: How easy or difficult was it for you to write content that held relevance for all and also remain objective about them in your collection “The Hidden Gems”? Aman Talwar: The process of observing the varied aspects of life revolving around us, weaving the divergent line of thinking and stream lining it to give it the right direction is a thought provoking process. But I had a strong belief that since the content of my book talks about those dimensions of our day to day living which we all experience, it will help establish an easy connect. I just tried to bring to light a unique perspective that propels one to look beyond the conventional practices of living. Akhila Saroha: What are your views about present-day writing? Do you think it does complete justice in depicting human nature in the light of “The Hidden Gems”? Aman Talwar: I feel writing has evolved over the years. Firstly, I think now we have more number of platforms providing an opportunity to the aspiring writers and at the same time giving the readers a satisfaction to read a variety of content. Now one gets to witness a wide range of literary work spanning from topics concerning the society as a whole and at the same time revolving around the thoughts and expressions of an individual as well. Also, I feel that somewhere down the line, the writing style has become a bit simpler, which helps in establishing a connect with the larger audience. Human nature is like a labyrinth, each person has a different perspective of looking at it and decoding it. Everyone in their own way is making an effort to unravel this mystery and as long as each piece of writing focuses on strengthening the human bonding and bringing out the best in one, it will be justified. Akhila Saroha: “The Hidden Gems” shows the uniqueness of your style of writing. Are there any authors you enjoy reading or any books that are your favorites? Aman Talwar: First and foremost, it’s my mother’s literary skills and an excellent command over the language that has made me admire the power of the art of writing and in the ability that words can create magic. I also am an ardent reader of Jane Austen’s novels. I feel her writing transports you into a world where one begins to identify with the literary characters and to top it with such powerful use of language, wherein a phrase itself is sufficient to convey the essence of the story. Pride and Prejudice is one of her masterpiece that justifies the aforementioned. Akhila Saroha: How would you categorize “The Hidden Gems” as its appeal seems to be to a broad audience? Aman Talwar: While penning down this book, my intent was to carve it in a way that it has a wider reach. As I mentioned earlier, since this book delves into the diverse dimensions of the human arena, I feel it has in it something that everyone will be able to identify with it. I am hopeful that this relatability factor is able to strike a chord in everyone’s heart. Akhila Saroha: “The Hidden Gems” has given a powerful introduction to your potential as a writer. Can the readers expect more from you in the future? Please share about your future projects. Aman Talwar: Thank you for the appreciation. Hearing a word of acknowledgment gives me a sense of satisfaction and encouragement to continue putting in my best efforts. I soon hope to begin work on
