The Merman and The Book of Power A Qissa

Irreverent to gistoricity and yet seemingly trying to tell a history, the book consciously blurs document and fable... Philosophical musings are coupled with dramatic events, both everyday and supernatural. Characters live in emotions that are appropriately ostentatious for fairy tale... Fantasy pretends to be history, and history lives a fuller life through these inventions... Hubristic humans, living out their most demonic acts." –Poorna Swami.
