Some books don’t scream for attention — they quietly sit with you, change the way you see small things, and leave you thinking long after the last page. Deewar Mein Ek Khidki Rehti Hai is one of those.
It’s not about a big plot; it’s about the heavy silences between people and the memories that live in the walls of a home. The writing is so poetic, it feels like a gentle ache.
Just finished a book that’s been sitting with me—Deewar Mein Ek Khidki Rehti Hai. It’s one of those quiet, unassuming stories that doesn’t feel the need to shout.
The window in the title says it all. It’s not just glass and wood—it’s that flicker of hope and curiosity we all feel, especially when life gets a little lonely. Reading it, I could almost feel the sun coming through that window and hear the city breathing outside.
It’s a small book, but it leaves a lasting impression.

About the book :
At first glance, the story seems simple — a man, a wall, and a window. But as you turn the pages, you realize it’s not about architecture at all. It’s about the walls within us, the invisible ones built from routine, regret, and unspoken emotions.
The way Vineet Kumar writes about the window is just… everything. He makes it so much more than just glass and a frame. It becomes that deep-down longing for a way out, a quiet friend for your loneliest thoughts, the fragile line between your daily life and all the daydreams you hold inside.
And his writing? It doesn’t even feel like regular prose. It’s like reading pure poetry. He has this incredible gift for finding a heartbreaking beauty in the simplest moments, and the things he doesn’t say—those pauses—somehow hit me harder than any big, dramatic plot twist ever could.
If I had to suggest a book to anyone to read in their lifetime, this would be the one.
What the Story Really Talks About :
This story is about the quiet loneliness of city life. It’s that feeling of being surrounded by people but still feeling completely on your own.
The main character lives in a world of memories, where the past feels as real as the present. This makes the reader wonder: what really defines a person? Is it where you live, or the moments you’ve experienced?
But there’s also hope. A simple window in the story becomes a powerful symbol. It’s a barrier, but also a glimpse of freedom and a reminder that a different life is possible.
Favourite Lines & Feelings
It’s hard to quote just one part — but what stays with you isn’t a single line, it’s the feeling of the book.
That strange peace that comes when you realize that silence can also tell stories.
By the time you finish, it feels like you’ve looked through a hundred windows — into lives, memories, and your own forgotten corners.
Final Thoughts:
Reading ‘Deewar Mein Ek Khidki Rehti Hai’ is a special experience. It’s strange how a story can make you feel like it’s opened a little window inside you. It leaves you with this gentle reminder: even when you feel trapped, there’s always a crack for hope to shine through.
Such an amazing Read … It just changes your whole perspective about seeing the world…. Loved it
