Impactful stories create a empathetic view of the less understood. Gives ample space for the unheard voices without adding much drama and analytical perspective. 

Most of the stories unravel as a Monologue and especially as a Diary of Monologues providing us a intriguing read also at times exhausting. Days and nights of the protoganists unravel before us in a sedentary fashion. End of each story reader is fully acclimatized to the surroundings of the protoganists and have a complete rounded view of the protoganists psyche. Stories suspend the analytical judgment on the less understood and avoid drama. Through these stories one feels the fringe have been heard in a neutral and non judgemental fashion.

Wild goat bleats reminding us of the predicament of unheard voices. Tender coconut juxtapose the endless vagaries of psychological knots mind prepares, Pigman rests it's shoulders on Poor man's Soliloquy. Invisible forests, biggest story of all, unravel the forests of words infront of us carrying the pain of indescribable loneliness of the protagonist. Title Story's ending was very poignant, reflects on the centuries of Mental journey mankind has made. 

Good Translation.
