Shant

Behind the tinsel curtain lies a web of crisscrossing shadows, where seemingly normal people living outwardly normal lives indulge their carnal hobbies and grab quick 'cups of coffee' amid the rubble of a condemned inner city building stocked with bodies and addicts, quick buys and slow death. In this haunting saga, cul-de-sacs of 'normalcy' conceal pulsating forests of sexual ghettos where hollow proprieties are defied, unforgiving avenues are escaped, admirable illegalities are executed, and luxuriant sensual awakenings are paid for in blood. SHANT is a finely crafted voyage across the lives of discarded people whose redemption will fully engross readers of grandly-told literary fiction.
