IT IS A FICTIONAL WORK BY DHRUV BHATT, IN THE FORM OF MEMOIRS OF A YOUNG CIVIL ENGINEER DEPUTED TO SURVEY AN ARID COASTAL PART OF SAURASHTRA. THE NOVEL HAS AT ITS CENTRE THE QUEST FOR A FINE BALANCE BETWEEN A TRADITIONAL, NON-SCIENTIFIC, FAITH-DRIVEN SOCIETY AND CYNICAL, PROFIT DRIVEN ECONOMY. WEAVING TOGETHER THE CHARACTERS, REAL AND IMAGINARY, EVENTS AND LEGENDS FROM THE FOLKLORE OF THE REGION, DHRUV BHATT HAS IMPARTED HIS OWN SENSITIVITY TO THE LEADING CHARACTERS AND AT THE SAME TIME NARRATED A GRIPPING STORY. . . - . . . ! ,
