Veronica and the Gongora Passion

Displaying the astonishing range of imaginative power and formal invention he is justly acclaimed for, Ghose lays bare the multiple layers of human experience in settings as diverse as South America, India and Pakistan, and Islamic Spain. These stories written with a subtly seductive prose, are to be savoured as much for their rich structure and wonderful language as for the depth of their revelations. "Zulfikar Ghose has ranked with and outranked several of the best English writers in England and America." - Review of Contemporary Fiction
