7 years to Decisions of heart

Here’s a brief word  to celebrate the 7th anniversary of Decisions of Heart by Saurabh Pant, marking 11th October 2025:


❤️ 7 Years of “Decisions of Heart”

October 11, 2018 – October 11, 2025

Seven years ago, Decisions of Heart emerged as a quiet but powerful reminder that not every choice we make can be explained by reason—some are etched purely in emotion.

Written by Saurabh Pant, this work blended intimate human truths with poetic elegance, exploring love, loss, trust, and the crossroads between logic and feeling.

In a time dominated by calculated moves and cold algorithms, Decisions of Heart offered something rare—an invitation to listen inward. Through its verses, Pant asked readers to embrace vulnerability, to value kindness over convenience, and to follow the pulse of the heart even when the world calls it foolish in nature.

“Sometimes, the right direction is the one that hurts less,
even if it’s not the one that makes sense.”

❤️ Ebooks’ influence 

Ebook's reference from Madhuri's blog 

As it completes 7 years, the book continues to connect with readers—across borders, languages, and even formats accessible to the visually impaired in global spheres.

The work can easily be accessed on  Kobo, Amazon Kindle and Everand the global library for those who wish to read romantic poetry or are interested.

It  reminds us that while the mind debates, the heart knows and it has too much to wait to carry if the feelings don’t spill out.

3 years to War novella

Here's to celebrate the 3rd anniversary of Rage of the Marine Titans by Saurabh Pant, marking 30th September 2025:


Amazon India link of War novella 

🎉 Celebrating 3 Years of Rage of the Marine Titans 📖
📅 30th September 2025

Three years ago, on this very day, Saurabh Pant gifted the literary world a powerful exploration of war, loss, and human resilience with Rage of the Marine Titans. 

What began as a novella set amidst the storm of global conflict soon grew into a resonant voice for peace, reflection, and the hidden battles waged within every soul.

As we mark this milestone, we celebrate not just the story—but the spirit behind it:
🔹 The unflinching courage of visually impaired author Saurabh Pant
🔹 The bold narrative that dared to blend fiction with geopolitical truth
🔹 The hearts it moved, and the readers it reached—from India to Europe and beyond

“In a world torn by marine storms, it was not just rage—but remembrance.”
– from Rage of the Marine Titans

To the author: Thank you for your fearless pen.
To the readers: Thank you for keeping the tide alive, it continues to enrage beyond.
To the future: Let the marine titans speak louder with everything calm but not  still.

🌊 Here’s to the voices that roar beneath silence, struck the surface and unfolds the rage..


Here's more to the context  which highlights the importance of Rage of the Marine Titans by Saurabh Pant as a war novella centered on Russia and Ukraine:

🌍 The Importance of Rage of the Marine Titans in Contemporary War Literature

Saurabh Pant’s Rage of the Marine Titans stands as a profound literary response to one of the most defining global conflicts of the 21st century — the Russia–Ukraine war. 

Published in 2022, at a time when the world was grappling with the realities of aggression, shifting alliances, and humanitarian crises, the novella does more than just narrate war — it humanizes it.

💣 A Human Face to Geopolitics

Unlike conventional war narratives, Pant’s novella zooms in on two military families caught in the emotional and ideological crossfires of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. 

This storytelling choice makes the political deeply personal, offering readers a lens of empathy rather than mere analysis. 

The pain, pride, and losses felt on both sides emerge through intimate scenes, making it impossible to ignore the human cost of territorial ambition.

🧠 Analytical Depth With Literary Craft

Though a work of fiction, the novella is anchored in research, rich with references to military strategies, land right conflicts,  historical tensions, and cultural identities. 

Pant’s command over South Asian and global conflict discourse adds intellectual weight to the prose, bridging the gap between a story and a political study.

🌊 Symbolism of the “Marine Titans”

The term marine titans goes beyond geography. It becomes a metaphor for those caught in the turbulence of nationalism, legacy, and survival — be they soldiers, families, or nations. 

Rage here is not just destructive; it's reactive, rising from centuries of power struggles and unresolved trauma.

🌐 A Voice from the Global South

As an Indian and visually impaired author, Saurabh Pant offers a rare and essential perspective to war literature. 

The war is often viewed through Western or European lenses — but Rage of the Marine Titans reframes it with a voice that is global yet grounded, analytical yet lyrical, and inclusive of those often left out of the war discourse.

🕊️ More Than a War Story — A Plea for Reflection

The novella ultimately serves as a plea for understanding, urging readers to question militarism, revisit history, and imagine peace. 

In a polarized world, Pant’s voice becomes one of nuance — reminding us that war is not about sides, but about souls.


✍️ In Summary

Rage of the Marine Titans isn’t just timely — it’s timeless.
A war novella for a world still learning to live with conflict, it bridges the gap between policy and poetry, between soldiers and civilians, between rage and reason.


Thank you everyone who had supported the work in the previous 3  years, hopefully it would get more reading time, keep reading.
