Manmohan Singh

In Ghost's Den Manmohan Singh

This book is a collection of my thoughts and imaginations. It contains stories, thrillers, satires, adventures and it is about some personalities whom I admire the most. I do not believe in the existence of Ghosts or other supernatural things. In India, particularly in rural folk the tales of ghosts are prevalent since centuries. Some anti social elements take advantage of people's belief in such things and exploit it in their favour. This book is an assault on those beliefs and the people who try to spread such thoughts. The satires are symbolic way of touching the most sensitive religious, political, and social issues. Here satires hit the present political and economic scenario which has made the life of common man difficult in India. There are features which I wrote during different times but relevant even today. These writings also showcase the condition of people living in small towns and villages. To me adventure is a part of our life. There are two experiences which are most thrilling and can give readers an exciting reading and some lessons to learn. Bhagat Singh, Manik Sarkar and Devi Lal are three personalities of different eras who can inspire and guide us.
