Like his previous work, in ‘Dubai Days’
also Vishalamanaskan uses his trade mark humour to take the narrative forward. Edathadan
is also brutally honest and doesn’t have any qualms in reminiscing about his
noble up bringing. But the basic issue with this book is that many of the ‘stories’(
incidents) included in this compilation don’t have enough meat in them to have
any re-call value. The pick of the lot is undoubtedly the one in which
Vishalamanaskan talks about his mother and how she ensured her children a successful
future overcoming all the hardships.
On the whole, ‘Dubai Days’ is a time
pass read. I’m giving it a 2.75 out of 5
PS- I hope Edathadan will let go his
fetish with ‘However’ atleast by the next book.
