Hangdog Souls

"""Darkly imaginative and very well-written. A thoroughly absorbing read – as rich and dark and fertile as a tropical night, and as perilous. A book of depth, intelligence, and imagination, it rewards and merits being re-read. It manages to successfully marry the historic, gothic, and scientific into a fascinating book that works new twists into those classic themes of betrayal, despair and redemption.' -Amazon, 5* ""Each sentence is a work of art. This book is one of the most well-written I've ever read. It follows a variety of characters over a period of hundreds of years, all tied together by a central storyline. The story is quite engrossing, covering realms of the magical and scientific, It's written in such a way that you really FEEL the weight of that guilt and the toll it takes on the characters – you experience that deep emotion vicariously through them.' -Amazon, 5* ""Delightfully Macabre. As a collection of shorts, it does a good job at throwing characters and archetypes, and in some cases styles at us, sketching historical actors and more contemporary sketches of Indian Middle Class."" -Amazon, 5* ""A very beautifully written, highly original work, with elements of horror, supernatural, science fiction and history. My heart sings when something this accomplished yet idiosyncratic gets published. A true literary curiosity, which manages to leave extraordinary images in the reader's mind."" -Amazon, 5* ""Even though it is not my usual genre of reading, I am glad I gave it a shot. The writing is very evocative – quite fascinating in that dark way."" -Amazon, 5*"
