One of the central themes of the novel is the coexistence of the mundane and the magical. Humayun Ahmed was a master of "magic realism," and this book is a prime example. The house is rumored to be haunted, not by malevolent spirits, but by a presence that evokes curiosity and sympathy. As the protagonist settles into this crumbling structure, the boundaries between the living and the dead blur. The author does not rely on jump-scares or horror tropes; instead, he builds a sense of lingering sorrow. The supernatural elements in the story—voices in the dark, the play of light and shadow—serve as metaphors for the memories and histories that the characters cannot escape.
