"The spiritual part of my body had taken over the rest of my mortal self...My whole perception of life was totally changed. I felt detached from all material things and was thinking only of the long voyage ahead, a voyage from which no one has ever returned. Even my sleep had been disturbed by dreams of family members who had passed away. They were beckoning me to join them. The scene was like a huge jigsaw puzzle falling into place, it was the picture of my life on earth at its end." The writing style, the flow of the stories, introduction and development of the complex characters, intense and multilayered plots with exciting twists and turns, original setting of each of the stories - everything about this collection of short stories and essays is a compliment to a wordsmith's craft.
