Pages : 139
Book Description
An Estonian proverb says, “If the bread in the oven is a failure, you lose a week; if the harvest is a failure, you lose a year, but if a marriage is a failure, you lose a life. ‘For better for worse’ is a ubiquitous marriage vow expression. But the ultimate question is: does true love truly conquer all? Kelvin and Anne were a happily married couple – having fallen in love during their university days. Life was rosy and the colours of their rainbow shone ever brightly…until life threw them a number of curves that eventually bursts their bubble of happiness. Kelvin lost his writing job at a major publishing house as a result of his unyielding scruples – leaving Anne, a banker, to shoulder the family responsibilities, including caring for their young son. Pretty soon the financial strain became more than she could handle, as her moralist husband failed to secure another job. The emotional and psychological effects of their dire situation, slowly began to eat at the fabric of their union and eventually tore the once-loving couple apart. A demanding job, an overbearing superior, her perceived nonchalant attitude of Kelvin, towards their plight, and the lure of a luxurious life by another man, eventually compelled Anne to walk out of her marriage and into an illicit affair. But she soon learnt the reality of the adage: all that glitters isn’t gold. Meanwhile Kelvin, engulfed by ineffable feelings of rejection and abandonment found himself in a very dark place. Haunted by an unrelenting sense of failure, he spiraled into depression, prompting him to commit suicide… Limes and Lemonades is a powerful and poignant story about love, lust, power, and betrayal. Readers will definitely be thrilled from the very first page to the last sentence
