That Pain in the Womb

Stories of people who chose individual freedom over accepted correctness.

Where is life conceived? What is the source of existence? What can bear pain and wield power at the same time? How does it feel when the womb hurts?

In this collection of twelve stories, Kumar tells us how people are irreversibly bound to what they create. This binding makes them despair, expect, and hope for their progeny's future. It pushes them both to make unusual choices fraught with risks and retribution. They make these difficult choices because beyond all fear is freedom.

These stories of angst and hope are imbued with Kumar's soulful voice and insightful expression. Through them, you will live the positive frustrations of the characters who find the power to change their fate by taking the most uncommon paths.
