Dawa: The Story of a Stray Dog in Bhutan
It's an allegorical novel that takes us through social, economic, leadership, political and geographical landscapes of Bhutan all through the eyes of Dawa - a humble stray dog in Bhutan.
We get to know various Bhutan's cultural aspects that ultimately change how Dawa reacts. I feel Dawa's characteristics of not-so-smart with a compassionate heart to pursue his dreams and hopes without intervening normality of others' lives are characters of Bhutanese and then Bhutan as a whole despite being such a small country.

Wangchuk, a credit officer, gets reduced to the lowest level of life when his wife Karma leaves him. But I liked how Wangchuk faces these problems with some of the Bhutanese values and dignity.
The Kadrinche brings various domestic problems in Bhutan which are either not known or addressed by victims just to maintain individuals’ pride and dignity.
The story is lucidly written with predictably realistic plots. With the increasing domestic violence cases in Bhutan, I am sure someone you know or either you might have experienced some parts of Wangchuk’s life.

When I flipped the pages of this book, some moments of my college days started getting unearthed one by one. I was at times laughing hysterically remembering my follies and also feeling proud realizing how much memories I have that are actually worth to be cherished.
But it doesn’t contain only about how narrator has proposed a girl, bunked classes, teased girls, boozed, went for walks, terrorized warden and tried unimaginable things from first page to last page. It’s a sensible journey of a college graduate narrated in two-time dimensions; present and past. As you follow his treads, you will be presented with various social problems that are prevalent in Bhutan as well as in other countries.
My curiosity started building up as I go on turning every page with my own presumed plots. But at the end, I was stabbed with a sudden change in the plot. When did a re-conciliatory conjuring of the whole plot in the end, I was in awe feeling apologetic instinctively for the time I have judged Dasho Lhakpa and Namsa.
I would say Chronicle of a Love Foretold is a moving story written with conversational eloquence. There are few medical procedures and physiotherapy terms. But the author has presented in simple manner as to be understood by all levels of readers.
