Hold My Hand
Durjoy Datta
Deep—eighteen years old and an obsessive bookworm—has to spend a week in the bustling and fascinating Hong Kong as an intern for a technology firm. Tall, gangly and awkward, he is not every girl’s dream boy. But things change when he bumps—quite literally—into a blind girl, Ahana, who reminds him of promises and forevers and cute puppies and double rainbows.
Ahana is Deep’s blind guide in the city as they discover it through each other’s senses while Ahana’s ex-boyfriend, Aveek, the talented, almost mutant-like, golden boy of all blind people, looms dangerously over them, pulling her deeper into the infrequent yet destructive mood swings . . .
Set in the multihued Hong Kong, “Hold My Hand” is a warm, comic and fuzzy story about books, blindness, and the joy of travel.
