Dream Beyond Shadows is a travelogue written by Kartikeya Ladha. I love travelling and this is one of the best travelogues I have read.
The cover is very beautiful. The shades of pink and purple are beautiful. The cover is really attractive.
Hellen Keller said “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all”
This quote sums up the book.
The author left his scintillating job to explore himself. It is very courageous to leave everything and follow your heart.
He goes to Amazon forest in Peru to experience Ayahuasca and in this journey he experiences working in an NGO to working as a bartender in a hostel.
In every destination he finds something new about himself. He also meets new and interesting people from whom he learns something.
The book is part autobiography,part travelogue. There are also wonderful poetry pieces.
What I really liked was this is not some typical wanderlust story but a story about truly exploring yourself. The story reminded me of a quote by Rumi “What you seek is seeking you”
The author’s writing style is such that the book keeps you hooked from the first and keeps getting more interesting as you progress with the reading.
The language is lucid and you can easily enjoy the book.

Spiritual,Stirring and dynamic. I recommend this book to everyone.
