Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 28 July 2022
The Wise Man said is a collection of twelve adventures done and lessons learnt by our old man Sammy. All adventures are separated from each other by their uniqueness. Every adventure (read chapter) ends with what Sammy learnt from it, some motivational quotes and a lot of post scripts (Really). It can also be said that providing some valuable quotes at the end of every chapter has become a signature style of Priya Kumar.Initially when conversation was going on between Naina and Sammy, it thought thaat the moment is not too far away when Sammy will take the story forward by giving his philosophy of life (Gyaan). But it was a catch.

What came further relaxed my senses like nothing else. It was so entertaining yet thought provoking that all my stress got depreciated. And this is not the first time happening to me while reading Priya's book, almost every book of her cast the same soothing effect to the soul. Perhaps it is one of the strongest reason why i always look forward to read her books. She has kept narration fast paced throughout the book. I liked how the book ended, it's heartwarming and heartwrenching at the same time (Does it make any sense?). The only thing which let me down is that i was unable to connect with some of the adventures (trust me! I tried a lot), perhaps the conditions were too hypothetical for me to accept. However, Positive points defeate negative ones by a huge margin.

Priya Kumar's books never fails to give positive energy/Vibes to the reader no matter how low one is feeling. They are like a ray of Hope and Hope is a beautiful thing. THE WISE MAN SAID is no exception
