Description

The Christinas of the Malabar of South India revere Doubting Thomas, the man who required the proofs of the flesh. These nine stories, based on the author's sojourns in South India, test the flesh and the spirit in meetings between East and West.

"James Conway is a subtle writer. These considered, understated tales mark an exciting debut."
- John Banville
