The light of day culminates in the darkness of night. Likewise, does the radiance of birth dissipate in the gloom of death? No one knows. A new day inevitably emerges from a dying night. Likewise, does new life arise from death? No one knows. The author, speaking through the soul of the dead protagonist, takes the reader on a tumultuous journey, reliving the memories, and thoughts, and dreams of Uthaman; dead and gone, and yet, very much alive in essence. In the shadows of the dark trees, in the corridors of moonlit nights, Uthaman's soul lives on for forty-one nights, telling readers a vivid, poignant and silent story.
