Short listed twice among hundreds of entries for the First Prize in Literature by Guernica Editions, the author, a master of innovative historical fiction, in this novel, The Incredibly Real Adventures of Shankar Singh, is at his very best. Wow, what a gripping saga. I'm truly impressed by the sheer scope of your work, as well as your writing skills-well done indeed. -Dr. Vonda, Editor Regarded and celebrated as one of India's greatest freedom fighters, Shankar Singh's brief alliance with the Axis powers during World War II might appear controversial, but his commitment to India's freedom struggle and his role in forming the Army Of Indian Revolutionaries (AIR), compelled the British to capitulate, which hastened India's path to independence. The protagonist Shankar, is mentioned in the author's first Book, A Dip at the Sangam, which was short listed for Guyana's First Book Prize in Literature. This book has been used as research material by Waseem Ahmad Wani, Research Scholar, when he presented a paper: Transformation from Coolies to Entrepreneur at the International Conference on Subalternity. The protagonist of the novel, Raja, after completing his indentureship, had transformed himself from coolie to entrepreneur in his adopted home of British Guiana. A Dip at the Sangam could be compelling movie material. The setting at the Triveni Sangam, where the Ganga, Yamuna, and mythical Saraswati rivers converge, offers a visually rich backdrop for storytelling. The Maha Kumbh Mela, a massive Hindu pilgrimage, adds another layer of drama and spectacle. The spiritual significance of the holy dip, where millions seek purification and connection with the divine, provides a powerful emotional core. Road to Belwasa, the author's second book, takes the reader on a journey of epic proportions, detailing his struggles to find his ancestral village, Belwasa, a tiny hamlet in Bihar, where the villagers turn out to welcome a great grandson of Raja, one who had been missing for many years and had returned.
