A PHENOMENAL NOVEL: INTO THE MIND AND OUT OF THE UNIVERSE
“…A transcendental story about the strange forces of the human psyche.
…A feeling of the unknown laws functioning in the deep realms of mind.
…A set of philosophical notions explaining the bizarre relationship between the mind and the universe”
This is about the new, unprecedented and outstanding novel: Phenomenon. The story begins with a mere accidental death of a college teacher who had been suffering from an “unswerving lethargic depression.” Another youngster also dies under mysterious circumstances with symptoms of depressive behaviour. A detective steps in to prove this as a murder case and even brings forth the culprit, who was a close friend of the victim, but now behaves rather dementedly. He keeps saying, “Life is half-dreaming in sleep and half-dreaming in reality” and astoundingly even reminds the detective of his lost child hood memory in which he had lost his sister at birth (“…He stole his way through the grim, close-lipped crowd of adults inside the room and saw on the bed his wailing mother and beside her, was the expressionless baby girl, who had died before being born.”). The detective gets this odd feeling that there is something in this case that the eye cannot see.
He seeks an eccentric parapsychologist – from whom he had been receiving mystic knowledge – to solve this mystery. Soon several victims come into the scene suffering from severe psychosomatic conditions. When the detective goes deeper with his investigation, he also begins to feel the tingle of dying from a depression. The parapsychologist finally unravels the presence of a vicious psychic who could unconsciously control the minds of other people and make them suffer from mental depressions by the mere use of telepathic concentration. He had attained this power after undergoing certain occult experiments as a guinea pig while being in the company of mystical adepts during his childhood. He had grown with clairvoyance and foresight and as a youth became conscious of this fatal power. At first, he used it against his enemies and later, started enjoying the pleasure of seeing people mentally suffer just because of his ability to influence other people’s minds. Being a misanthropic introvert, he could now unleash his vengeance against anybody he wanted to and slowly saw others suffer from the malicious activity of his mental faculties.
Finally, the parapsychologist confronts this psychic in a titanic encounter. “Here is a story about an extrasensory friction, a conflict of consciousness, a telepathic turmoil and a psychological combat between a parapsychologist and a psychic.”
An extraordinary novel written in an utterly spellbound manner and paceful narration with nail-biting incidents added at every nook and corner of the story. The readers are served with a language delight. (“Whenever Unnikrishnan Solonky observed a starry scrap of the night sky, especially after philosophically reading a book on astronomy, he felt that he had become more intimate with the universe. Playing with such a spiritual thought, he customarily continued studying the tags of tangled mysteries, hanging down the body of the cosmos until his wife’s rotund face, scarred with sorrow, appeared before him and reminded him that the greatest mystery of their life was not clouded in the heavens but buried here inside the earth and that was the unexpected death of their young son, Abhay.”). It gives the feel of the unknown, the presence of the psychic forces around life and hints upon the laws existing beyond the understanding of human mind. Clairvoyance, dreams, trance, cosmic movements, near-death experiences, astral healing, mind-reading, hypnosis, telepathy and even a mysterious cave found to be a monument with strange forces inhabiting it. The underlying science behind all such happenings has been hinted upon and a search for the Truth has begun…
“The combination of metaphysical with the physical world results in a quaintness of situation. The reader would surely and greedily lap up the thrill and excitement of going through this novel. And the realistic narration would compel him to glance over his shoulder in trepidation more than once.An absorbing novel, definitely not for the faint-hearted, it would certainly appeal to lovers of fiction and those with an inquiring mind” - A comment from a reviewer.
