Bila Ada Rindu

Saturday, August 29, 2009
A novel by Emma Maizura. This would be the 3rd novel that I had read by the same author after Tiada Noktah Cinta and Ada Cinta di Hati. I like the first 2 novels and I managed to finish this 3rd novel earlier this week.

The story is about Nur Dalyla, a lady who is born out of wedlock (rape case), without her knowing and being adopted by 2 wonderful parents. Her life is as beautiful as anyone would expect until she was forced into marriage by her parents to her own cousin just to cover about her situation. Entered Eirel Iskandar (I love the name!). The story started to get interesting when Eirel likes Dalyla but his parents didn't like Dalyla merely because of her status.

It is a nice story, a must read book. It somehow put you in Dalyla's shoes. How it feels to know that your parents are not your real parents. And to know the truth about your life is just too painful. I don't know how anyone can survive those ordeals. Besides no one (i'm very sure of this) wants to know that they are 'anak luar nikah' (child out of wedlock) and people, particularly Malay people will give you 'that' look!
