About the Book
Every story is a backdrop story in itself. Not every story reflects real death, but stories delve into the inner human psyche and bring out the dark secrets.
It was a bright Tuesday. As I was browsing through the Instagram page of the Westland Publishers, I happened to see a post that intrigued me extensively. The post had a book cover named ' Mortuary Tales '. Without a thought, I bought the Kindle version and finished reading the book in maybe 3 hours.
As soon as I acquired it, I read the book Author Kashif's close association with Author S.Hussain Zaidi. I am a big fan of Hussain's writing, and his insight on Mumbai Underworld is fascinating. Thus, I ended up reading this book by Kashif.
The book, Mortuary Tales is a collection of nine stories that emerged from love, pain, guilt, remorse, and introspection.
This book can also be coined as a novel that makes understand readers what death is! A strict trigger warning to the readers who are not comfortable reading gore and life-threatening writings.
Author Kashif Mashaikh has done a great job in his debut novel with simple yet effective language and grammar and proved that crime & horror genre stories could be derived from everyday lives. Apart from the trigger warning, this book is an excellent read to readers who love reading extremely captivating thrillers.
