A Maverick Heart is a book that is bound to take you back to your college days. A romance with the campus hottie, bunking boring lectures, hullabaloo at the canteen, managing to somehow scrape through exams…A Maverick Heart has it all. The plot gradually takes a serious turn when it subtly discusses about the contemporary socio-politico structures of our country. A Maverick is a realistic piece of work that discusses about today’s youth and the social factors which condition them. Their journey from that of an individual to being a part of a wider social environment is charted in this story. If you have forgotten how it feels like to be surrounded by an unsettled life, chased by professors for timely submissions, pursued by girlfriend for settling down and hounded by parents for finding a good job then you must read this book as it takes you to a blissful trip down memory lane.
