This is a collection of stories with an autobiographical element by an academic, psychologist, poet and storyteller. Each of the 20 stories in this thin book convey a meaningful message.
And in doing so, they alsoexplore love, fear, guilt and redemption, though with imagination also bringing in an element of fantasy.
As the author says himself in the preface: `Perhaps fantasy can turn sad memories into joyful remembrances; maybe it can even change history. In these stories, I have rewritten history. . .
while refusing to accept reality as it is. Whether the reader likes it or not, these narratives help bring closure to the unfinished business of my life.
