Black Sheep

Description

The lingering incident of strange characters in nuclear families is the subject matter of this novel. Oftentimes, a good-natured couple wakes up to the sad reality that one of its offspring is ill-natured and far out of tune with its collective disposition. It does happen also that some ill-disposed couple sometimes begets a well-inclined offspring. And all this seems to run contrary to the obvious universal principles of "birds of a feather flock together" and "like father like son". Not infrequently, some misgivings and feelings of mystery arise as to how it is possible that such aberration occurs.
Black Sheep, in a fictional rendering, turns the searchlight on the contending factors in such circumstances. Through a dispassionate and broadminded way, this novel strings together the prevailing socioreligious and cultural dimensions and standpoints.

In engaging narrative and dialogue, Black Sheep touches on a wide range of associated issues that gnaw at man's stability. It presents as the Microscope which does not just broaden the scope of the challenge but also delves beneath the coarse surface into the root worm. It however leaves the reader with the choice of personal assessment with a view to identifying with the truth amid thick clouds of prejudice.
