5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended!

Knowing Women by James Lawless is an addiction! I’m serious!<\/p>\n

A perfect kind of classic novel I was looking for!<\/p>\n

Laurence J Benbo, a graphic designer by profession, a protagonist who would stay with you for the rest of your life, is someone you should definitely be involved with.<\/p>\n

His reserved mannerism when it comes to women, is to leave you enticed. His<\/p>\n

Time changes and it changes very quickly.<\/p>\n

For him, it all began when he saw an interesting girl smiling at him. His curiosity got over him and he figured out that this girl is a lap dancer and learning English.<\/p>\n

He makes his innocent moves. (The way he works is adorable!) and he interacts with her.<\/p>\n

One day, he wins a lottery. All of a sudden, his jealous brother and his family knocks at his doors.
\nLater, they blackmail him severely to hand over the money to them. For that, they could go to any extent.<\/p>\n

A story of betrayal, greed and morality over the edge of loneliness and grief.<\/p>\n

You will not realize when and how you yourself were in the skin of Laurence J Benbo, being the melancholic him, the cheerful and hopeful him.<\/p>\n

There is no way one can prevent themselves from falling for these characters.
\nThe elegant and refined writing style won my mind over and over.<\/p>\n

If you’re wondering which genre this book falls under!<\/p>\n

It’s Accessible Literary Fiction, there you go!<\/p>\n

The author’s work is commendable and thought provoking. I remember when I was reading The Avenue, I was left contemplating about various notions in my head.<\/p>\n

Same thing happened while I was reading this one.<\/p>\n

My favorite scene was when Jadwiga, the Russian lap dancer says that she wants to change her yob.
\nLaurence corrects her that it’s not yob, it’s job!<\/p>\n

I was cracking at this. Who would not?<\/p>\n

This shows that the dialog and characters’ portrayal has been done superbly. They make you stick to it completely.<\/p>\n

The author’s interview at the starting, not only provided nourishment to the story but also held my attention amply. I was musing to myself, ‘Why in the world didn’t I read this before!’<\/p>\n

The author demonstrates his writing abilities in most cheerful, poised, tasteful, pensive and glittering manner. At the same time and with a different perspective, the story is sorrowful.<\/p>\n

The blurb leaves you hanging in the middle.<\/p>\n

As I was reading the story, I would again go to the back of the cover, read the blurb again and think to myself ‘ Now, this part has happened, this is the next!’ and until that point arrives, I would hold my breath, when it will pass, my amusement would keep repeating this process.<\/p>\n

Clearly, the book is to touch the skies and go beyond it. You have my high recommendation for this one!<\/p>\n

To end a year with a book like Knowing Women, was a terrific step.<\/p>\n

Verdict: James Lawless is a Rockstar!<\/p>\n

Try not becoming his fan after reading this book, you will certainly fail to do so.<\/p>\n
