⏩ Which city do you want to visit once since childhood? 🗼 Clearly Invisible in Paris by Koel Purie Rinchet is one of the most complex books yet it will put you in a daze. 🗼To be honest, I wanted to visit Paris when I was daydreaming of travelling, and the way this book portrayed Paris will create your own image of Paris in your mind. 🗼This book revolves around four girls from completely different backgrounds coming to a city—a city that they want to be “home” for them, which seems impossible, but eventually Paris becomes their identity, their world away from their other world. 🗼With its beautiful and rich vibes, its blurb attracted me in seconds, like I hadn’t even thought of anything and went for this one, and this was one of my great choices. 🗼 Neera , a girl living a luxurious life with her rich husband, While Rosel struggles with her life to have a stable life in Paris so she can bring her son some happiness, she works as a housekeeper (nanny). 🗼Dasha is a girl who is comforting for everyone, but sometimes she forgets to comfort herself, wanting to walk on the ramp like she owns the world. 🗼Violet, a trans woman and strong, beautiful dancer 🗼All these 4 girls are living in Paris & fighting their own battles differently, yet they are all connected to each other in a beautiful way—a way where all 4 show an attitude of “never giving up”. 🗼It shows the struggles of people who have immigrant status; it shows pain & anger. 🗼The insecurities of friendship where you’re the one who is alone despite of being there 4 others. 🗼 The insecurities of a woman who works hard to earn where she can feel her family slipping from her hand, losing them to a housekeeper. 🗼A trans woman who tried to help someone who deserves the world—a bagger—but was betrayed by that person in front of the world. 🗼A woman who loses an important person, her husband, in a COVID battle feels numb in the full lights of Paris. 🗼However, sometimes I feel that there is too much explanation given, which makes me understand the story. 🗼But the plot literally put you in a daze, exploring a painful life yet full of wit, wisdom, and laughter.

I wake up guilty!! #booktour #bookstagram #clearlyinvisibleinparis In my happy place #goa with @prabhakhaitanfoundation Wearing @madebycuin Styled by @nehasibalkapoor @instarunkapoor
What do you think of the cover of my novel #clearlyinvisibleinparis ? #judgeabookbyitscover Just as we were going to print i wasn’t sure about the cover we’d worked for weeks on, i wanted to go back to the drawing board. Time was ticking. Grateful that the team at @rupa_publications gave me the freedom and respect to say “do your thing”. But i didn’t know what that thing was exactly. Panicked i called my friend @pic_on_cat and within hours her amazeballs team @neuralhinge tinkered and tweaked the design and gave me what I have come to love so much. All creative process is highly subjective and this one I’ve simply loved and is growing more and more on me by the day. ❤️❤️ I could never give @neuralhinge the credit they deserve as the printers was already ready steady go. So thanking them here with all my heart. And @iambossina and @sufialambrou you are very visible to me on my cover ❤️🙏🏽 Did the cover make you buy my debut novel? If you’ve read the book do you think the cover covers it? If reviews are anything to go by it’s a great read 😜Get your copy now.
