“A fantasy, grounded in the future, with a forceful message that brings hope but does not allow us to gloss over vileness ever present in our midst. That’s how Baroowah’s The Life of Rhinoceros in Kaziranga, Where Wise Owls Dare can be summed up.”
–Hiren Phukan, a newspaper journalist based in Malaysia, Singapore and India.
This book is a futuristic socio-political fantasy based on rhinoceroses of Kaziranga. It is almost a thriller that encompasses Asia, Europe and America.
Assam is blessed with a new Chief Minister who breezes in with progress, development and prosperity for the state. His British bio-scientist teacher helps him usher in economic growth and ward off the fear of the one-horned rhinoceroses from becoming an extinct species. But disgruntled poachers swoop in on the scene. An assassination bid follows, which is foiled by Wise Owls, who are professional protectors. Who is the target of the ruthless murderers? Is it the Chief Minister or the elderly British Professor?
Love has many ways of expressing itself, be it love for fellow beings, religion, country, family, animals or the filthy lucre. All of this is presented by novelist Gautam Prasad Baroowah in his new novel.
