#BookReview: Tick Tock by Rahul P Bhandare

Book-Review-Tick-Tock-Bhandare-Sirimiri

Pages: 27

Genre: Comic / Illustrated

Available in: Paperback

The Plot:

The journey of a wrist watch, through time. From being assembled, to  changing multiple hands, and owners, to a whole new twist in the end. This wordless journey is depicted through illustrations / images.

My Thoughts:

When I was asked if I would review a Comic Book, I was a bit taken back. I tried to think back to the last time I had read one, and only Archie’s comics came to mind.

My curiosity about the comic book led me to accepting the review offer. As soon as the slim, black and white illustrated copy of Tick Tock by Rahul P Bhandare was in my hands, I read it in one go.

I must confess I have read it many times over ever since, and each time I read it, I interpret it differently. With no words being used to tell the story, your imagination is free to take flight, as it follows the simple illustrations.

I found the idea of a wordless story very intriguing, and each time I read it, I interpreted it according to the mood I was in. If I was low, I found a philosophical story. A happy mood brought about a cheerful outcome.

A refreshing concept and a simple story make Tick Tock by Rahul P Bhandare a must read.

    A contemporary wordless comic book is surely an interesting one to pick up. It reminds me of the comic strip “Henry” I used to read as a kid. Liked your review.

    Couple interesting things in this book . The book cover is intriguing and the whole idea of a watch going back in time, and the plot laid out in the form of illustrations sounds good.

    Now, this is something very interesting. A wordless book. I liked how the author left it for the readers to interpret.

    This book looks interesting. I like such comics where we can imagine and build our own versions each time we read.

    Such a refreshing and interesting book. I love the idea. We moved from long to short to micro fiction. This is a super cool idea too!

    That’s so intriguing. A wordless story can be powerful. Both children and adults can find different stories from the pictures. Need to see the book now!
