Welcome to Paradise review: Twinkle Khanna's new book establishes her as one of India's best authors
FirstpostOn the cusp of her fiftieth year, Khanna is at her peak. Not only is her iridescent beauty luminous beyond belief, but her wit is also at its sharpest, her writing at its bravest, and her voice unshakeable and self-assured I’m in a room filled with superstars. Yet, my eyes are on the biggest superstar in this room–– Twinkle Khanna, who is launching her fourth book and second short story collection: Welcome to Paradise. Welcome to Paradise is also Khanna’s homage to her Ismaili Khoja ancestry and her nani, to whom the book is dedicated. Additionally––if accessibility was a fear after Khanna’s lauded social commentary on parenting, everyday situations and relationships became hugely popular, then the massive popularity of her last two books, The Legend of Lakshmi Prasad and Pyjamas Are Forgiving, that touched upon the less cromulent subjects of female agency and disenfranchisement, and now this, is a definitive win––not only for authors, but especially for women authors.
