Chinmay Narayan is plotting to kill himself. He is a misfit at school, his parents are about to divorce and the love of his life doesn't know he exists. But before he can get anywhere with the suicide plan, Chinmay and his friends, Anu and Sabi, stumble into the eerie world of Conchpore through a portal in Uncle RK's library. They find themselves in the Seeker's School, where you can buy spiritual courses to bring you enlightenment. While the seekers seem unaware that there is something amiss, Chinmay and his friends chance upon a strange and sinister plot involving some teachers and administrators. The charismatic Siddharth, a visiting former student of the school, seems like their one big hope. Then Chinmay discovers that Siddharth is seeking catharsis from his dark past by writing a book - a book with Chinmay as the protagonist. Is Siddharth part of the evil caucus? Will the three youngsters find their way back to the world they left behind? Can Chinmay become the author of his own life? Set in Madras in the early 1990s, The Reengineers dispels the boundaries between fiction and reality to tell a tale that is as much a coming-of-age story as it is an inspiring narrative about self-empowerment and spiritual growth.

Review The book nicely balances good and evil, despair and hope, reality and fantasy, romanticism and classicalism while advancing the story. There is a section which comprises letters Sid writes to Chinmay - these are beautifully composed and hold messages and thoughts that are deeper than the prose that displays them. I highly recommend this book." - Dilip Keshu, Author of The Nine Dots and The Race (Jan 2016) The book has much to recommend, but the most important reason is that it is splendidly reflective. It let me lay back and observe familiar thoughts running through a younger version of myself in its pages. This mood of reflection is hard to create in writing - congrats to the author for doing it well. - Ramiah Ariya, Author of 'The Exorcism of Satish Kumar MBA' (Jun 2015)"Quite an interesting read, almost like a parable - starts up slowly but picks up pace while imparting some key lessons" - Vikas Datta (Dec 2015)True to the quote borrowed from Charles Dickens at the beginning of the book, 'The Reengineers' leaves us wondering and wanting more. The novel clutches onto the memory of an era which is now replaced by a post-modern need to clutter. In crisp, easy to understand English, Ms. Muralidharan pens characters and scenarios which reminds one of R.K.Narayan and his most distinguished work 'Malgudi Days'. - Parul Doshi (Aug 2015)"Chinmay and his friends, I loved them. When I started reading, I felt it was a light hearted book, but had a nagging feeling that I was wrong..Then the book turned so intense that I was affected by so many emotions that I had to take a break from reading. At first, I could see you in Chinamy and Siddarth, then I saw myself and then I realized they represent so many of us, especially from our generation. Thank you for letting out Chinmay into the world." - Sayana Rasal (June 2015)

This book is a must for teenagers By Sundari Venkatraman Disclaimer: I received a free paperback copy of this book from the publisher via The Book Club in return for my honest review. I haven’t received any monetary compensation for the same.I was curious to know more when I read the blurb. I think spirituality is an integral part of our lives, at all stages, not necessarily when we grow old. I liked the idea that the author has incorporated spirituality in transforming the lives of teenagers.First of all, I am absolutely impressed by the flawless language and perfect proofing of the book. I rarely come across English books by Indian authors that have impeccable language. For this, I congratulate Indu Muralidharan. The book was a joy to read, without me wincing even once.Set in 1990s Madras, the story is about Chinmay and his friends Anu (this is a guy) and Sabi (a girl). They are having study holidays before their tenth board exams. They are children from typical Indian families where the parents are under tremendous pressure to have their children succeed in every aspect of their lives. The three of them are sad as they feel the burden of their parental pressures. Chinmay feels it all the more as his parents are on their way to being divorced. He’s planning to commit suicide soon after the exams.The three teenagers are studying in Chinmay’s uncle’s library when the door handle breaks and they are stuck in the room. While trying to leave by the backdoor, they land up at Conchpore, an imaginary town in Tamil Nadu.They find themselves in the campus of the Seekers’ School and have the strangest of experiences in the next 24 hours that transforms their lives.Whether their experience is real or a figment of their imaginations, the author has left the reader to decide. But what I liked is that the experiences change the teens so much that they look forward to their lives as against their depressed stands earlier.The author has captured the behind-the-scenes story of spiritual cults to perfection. It’s nothing short of scary but the horrors are obviously real. Very well narrated!Siddharth’s transformation from a depressed man to a confident one with the help of the “Professor” is inspiring. It’s influence on Chinmay is monumental. Though the “Professor” appears in but a few scenes, he truly leaves a mark.This book is a must read for youngsters. It will help them see the world in a different light altogether.All that said, somewhere the story that’s a fiction, gets preachy. I wish it had been dealt with differently so as not to seem as if I was being read a lecture.I am glad that I got to read this one, definitely.

This in no way impacts my review and all the thoughts expressed are my honest opinion.It's been a while since I read the book and I am still digesting it. This is one of the books which is both easy and difficult to reminisce on. The reason is that it was both an enjoyable read which got me immersed in the lives of the characters wholeheartedly and an enlightening read which got me thinking on the various truths interspersed throughout the book. It is classified as Young Adult but I think that it is appropriate for all ages. It is universal and the author has done a good job making her work a different and thought provoking one.The entire story can be told in a line - Discovery of self. That's what the book is about. The author has taken a unique way of trying to get across her point/message. The book follows the adventure of Chinmay, Anu and Sabi as they discover a portal to another space and world. There they go through incidents which changes them in a better way.I admit that the similarity of the beginning of the tale to Chronicles of Narnia, that is, the accidental discovery of an entry to a different world, was what first attracted me to the book. I was expecting a fantastical piece of work with a hint of mystery as hinted by the blurb. What I got was a tale which is similar to almost everyone's life at some point. It does speak of the hard truths of life.The starting was a bit slow and almost had me giving up on the book because of too much negativity and the suffering mentality of Chinmay and his friends. But then their entry into Conchpore had the story speeding up and then ending with a simplicity after all the convoluted explanation.Chinmay and Siddharth seem to be the most focused on characters and I saw them getting better and justifying their roles while Anu and Sabi, though good supporting cast, weren't given much substance. All other characters, including the Professor, are just part of the background which made the story reach the end.The writing of the author made me remember past delights of Madras and life in general which can't be seen much in this present technology savvy world. Those parts made me bittersweet since I miss them a lot and also thankful that the author was able to connect with that part of my life.This book of inspiration and coming of age story of Chinmay, Anu and Sabi has given an insight into the author's writing style. Though this is widely different to the usual trope out there, it might not appeal to everyone's taste. For me, it was the right blend of fantasy and reality to satisfy the reader in me.My rating : 4/5
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Reengineer self and seek By Nimi Chinmay, Anu and Sabi are three friends who have no other friends. Except for books, that is.The three friends are misfits in the society, even among their own family members.Chinmay Narayan is the protagonist of The Reengineers.On the first page itself, he tells that he had two goals - to top the class ten board exams, and to kill himself after the exams. In the very next sentence, he clarifies that by the next afternoon, his life and plans had changed.As readers, we now have a notion of where this story would go, and probably end. It is the 'how' that keeps you hooked.It is a coming of age book. It starts at a time when Chinmay did what his parents desired. He did not know he could choose different. Not while living anyway. So he had decided to end his life.When the book ends, the life and its' choices have changed drastically.The language of The Reengineers is rather poetic, dreamlike quality at times. You feel your sense being enveloped by the emotions of the characters whose life is about to be reengineered.Suddenly the vibe changes. There is mystery, tension, and danger in the air.The story of The Reengineers doesn't rush from one event to the other. It relishes the emotions.Detailed review with excerpts on my blog NimiArora.comI received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
