The Stain: A Novel

In the glittering rot of Sodom where opium blooms like dark flowers since time immemorial Lot a foreigner threads his life through shadows―with his wife daughters and humanity at stake. Sodom is a modern inferno devouring its own: Emalath Bithya Jachin mere echoes in its relentless feast. Lot''s solitary compassion fractures the city''s void his kindness is but a costly lamentation.The Stain reimagines the biblical scape a Levantine dreamscape where the known unravels―truth and humanity become questions not answers.Translated from the Malayalam by Sangeetha Sreenivasan.
