When Silence Shapes a Personality

Shame Wears My Name by Anurag Mishra is a book that focuses on how silence, ignorance, constant comparison, pressure and expectations at an early age can leave a negative impact on a person’s personality. 

The book revolves around Aryan, who experienced all these things at an early age due to which he loses his confidence, becomes silent and feels like his emotions are not important. 

Aryan never got a chance to express his wishes, which made him an introvert and he chose to be silent because that felt safer than speaking out loud and being a reason for laughter. 

Through this story, the author shows how small incidents leave deep damage in our heart which are not easy to repair or heal. The book is relatable to everyone who has ever felt absence of a listener in their lives and has hidden stories in their heart.
