VASCO DA GAMA & THE PRIEST (Paper Back) By THAMPY ANTONY THEKKEK
Funny , hilarious and oblique . These stories
are told from an unconventional angle ... the visual richness in the stories
adds a new dimension to the reading experience . --Benyamin , author of Goat
Days and Jasmine Days Thampy Antony Thekkek's twelve stories in this book spon
village , city and country , animal and human , real and surre al , political
and sexual , peculiar and twisted . Vasco da Gama and the Priest is a daring
collection of sto ries . The author's freewheeling imagination explores lust
for life and victory , mysteries of female psychology , the feelings of metro
life , die hard habits , and angst and frus tration of expatriates who
forfeited their roots . There are many hauntingly familiar characters in the
stories , they do not hurt anybody , yet taunt many . He gives a dressing down
to the society in a witty way . With this book , he certainly claims his space
in the English literature . Winner of Basheer Amma Malayalam Award 2019 and
Kerala Ezhuthukoottam Pravasi Award 2019.
