SAVORIES OF THE SAVED!!

In the advent of "The Festival of Love", where human mating is legal on streets for a conceived duration in High East Offerance, our amazingly excited Elect of God III, Isis Whit..blah blah blah...begins her mission in pursuit of her long-lost cousin Morag(now a reigning porn star). Highly flummoxed by the habits and cultural differences of the Unsaved, this Granddad's little girl decides to give it a push and sticks to the search. The timely support and assistance of her city-bound brethren lift her spirits up.

Mr. Banks has an elusive complication in the usage of words to ornate his narration. Some of them were very unheard of yet had beautiful sounds and synonyms that fortified the entire coherence. He refurbishes the whole structure of his language with a wise choice of sentences and phrases. Humour, when hidden, makes it even more wanting and worthy. As things in this story move to a clearer spot, so many truths get unfolded and responsively it's just recursive fun but a shocking surprise. It did not fail to regale the readers at any level. Iain Banks has his own strange yet appealing genre in writing. The cover of his paperbacks and titles prove the special repertoire of the author himself.
This book, "Isis amongst the Unsaved", if read with exhaustive interest and dedication will definitely be a silent pleasure as the sarcasm slowly makes its way out. A lot was learnt encompassing vocabulary, cult procedures, rituals and not to forget my favourite cause that grabbed all the attention in the end, "The Zhlonjiz"
One among Isis's identification string "Saraswathi", the twin sisters Zhobilia's and Aasni's Asian origin, highlight on our eight-yard wonder were so Indian that kept me wondering about this author's multifarious thoughts with pride.

Sometimes I hate our buses for chasing us away with our books and lunch boxes during the casual turns...so much remodelling..so many cras.....ssshhhesss... oopsie!!! I didn't mean to say that...Well..now it's a vibrant bucket of bolts...good! THE GRAND GATEWAY! It's hard for me to not keep thinking about our old watchman. Sharp at 8:45 these huge pair of gates would be closed.There would be a little door too...for other people to enter..and the notice board that you see right there always captivated us during monsoons....we'd wait for some holiday notes to be written so we could run back home. Emails or Phones or WhatsApp didn't exist then. Though these gates did scare us a few times...it very well taugh...

Endings, Beginnings

The aftereffects of war are dire. I once saw a CBS 60-Minutes episode that gave a rundown on possible explorations of psychedelic-assisted therapies to manage PTSD in war veterans and soldiers. It discussed the possibilities of intense research and funding based on a handful of positive results. Our world grossly underestimates the damage a combat zone can inflict. This novel replayed those scenes through its sombre portrayal of the unspoken pain gnawing at a survivor who found his way home to Wigton from Burma. Life will never be the same for him or his family. An irreparable ripple effect disperses in his community. Even the nature in his native land, with its pristine waters and pastoral plains, couldn't find a cure for him. He's driven to escape again and runs towards an unknown territory with hopes of new beginnings. "The Soldier's Return" is a poetic dedication to numerous war heroes who rejected death but struggled to live. Once reaching a point of no retu...
