Blogger Vinayana Khurana has a perpetual smile on her face while
ideas race through her mind. Her passion for writing has resulted in many
thoughtful poems, and now a book.
Vinayana’s World is the name of a book by Vinayana
Khurana, a budding blogger and activist. Vinayana, a postgraduate in
English Literature from Delhi University, has written a
collection of short stories that portray various emotions and situations
about life and disability.
A wheelchair user, Vinayana has cerebral palsy and speaks up often about the
challenges disabled people face due to physical, mental and social barriers.
This book contains a wide range of emotions and feelings. Most people think
that I write a lot on the theme of disability and that perhaps I am not
passionate about any other topic. Actually it gives me great pleasure to
write about these themes. My stories are short but convey valuable meaning.
I am sure that you will have new thoughts and feelings while reading these
stories. – Vinayana Khurana
Vinayana’s World is out as an e-book and wants readers to read one story a
day. “I would like the reader’s mind take some time to absorb them. I wish
you get to know about some of your own feelings through this journey of
reading”.
Vinayana’s stories are a window into her mind and depict the way she
perceives the world. She believes that through the power of words, the world
can come closer and people can understand and relate to others by sharing
thoughts. The stories are presented in a very simple manner and the
characters are very relatable.
The stories reflect upon themes like independence in people with
disabilities, relationships, and offer encouragement to look beyond
disability and the need to build empathy. The book, out in e-form, has been
well received.
‘Vinayana’s World’ is available on Amazon.
