Meet ‘Youngest Author Of India’ – Ayan Gogoi Gohain

” There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story in you”

– Maya Angelou

It is confusing to be consumed by the blazing fire of an untold story. It was the same for Ayan Gogoi Gohain, who is the youngest author of India. Ayan achieved this extraordinary feat when he was just four years old, an age in which children stutter and stammer to get things right.  

“I see what’s happening around and write about it. It could be anything a chat with my grandfather, or something new I just learned”

– Ayan Gogoi Gohain. 

HONEYCOMB AND BUMBLEBEE

This eighty-page book written by Ayan Gogoi has thirty anecdotes and thirty accompanying illustrations. Its price is Rupees 250, and it is available at all the major online stores in India. According to the book’s blurb, “The amazing journey of Ayan’s Honeycomb started when he began to address his insatiable hunger for words, colors, sounds, tastes, and sights.” 

After this publication, the child prodigy from Assam got congratulations wishes worldwide for his outstanding talent. His second book published recently is titled Bumblebee. This book is a compilation of 33 articles on different subjects. Remarkably, Bumblebee’s cover image is photographed by Ayan Gogoi, and it represents the tricolors of the Indian National Flag.

 “I remember he had once seen a rainbow and composed a poem, comparing his seven colors with the seven notes of music. Gohain himself designed the cover page of honeycomb.“

– Purno Kanta Gogoi.

Moreover, it is his love for animals that forced him to write his second book. He would love to set animals and birds free into outer space.
