Produktbeschreibung

Bold and irreverent, this is essentially a work of fiction, Arnold's stories are a blend of humour, cynicism and terror. He extracts episodes from religious texts, personal observations and legends of faith that abound in the sphere of faith and spirituality. The stories project an amplified, yet truthful account of the terrible and the ridiculous. The book does not blaspheme any belief, for nothing he says is a departure from what is already woven into the written texts. Yet this remains a work of fiction with superstitions and reality blended into one disturbing narrative.

Autorenporträt

Born in India and brought up in three continents, Arnold Wishman describes himself as a man of science. He is married to a pious Hindu lady, has two even more pious children, and two grandchildren who are yet to make up their minds. Though well-read in scriptures of every religion more out of curiosity than piety, it is the deep insight into the racial wars and inhuman terror ingrained in many or most of them, he says, that made him something of a cynic and an agnostic.
