On a trip back to India, he becomes obsessed with the old Bengali myth of ''The Gun Merchant'', who fled overseas to escape persecution from a Snake Goddess.<br /><br />Visiting a shrine to the Merchant, Deen is almost bitten by a snake, and so begins a series of events in which the Gun Merchant’s story starts to become bound up in Deen’s own.<br /><br />Spanning several continents, this novel is stuffed to bursting with ideas about climate change, migration, the interconnectivity of past and present and the way ancient stories can have a powerfully-imaginative impact on an individual consciousness.<br /><br />But it’s also a fussily written, hydra-headed mess of madly proliferating, credulity-stretching plot points.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432323600560922370.post-75599433132104760722018-11-02T23:05:57.789-07:002018-11-02T23:05:57.789-07:00बन्दूकबन्दूकAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
