Cobwebs in the Sky

Cobwebs in the Sky is a powerful narrative of four friends who evolve gradually from women with normal weaknesses and foibles into "women of substance." Cutting across generations, the novel emphasizes that the basic sense of values has not changed over the years. The core of the problems and pitfalls of each succeeding generation continues to be love, sex, and marriage, which spawn emotions and actions that are universally similar-lust, revenge, deceit, rape, and abuse. These have a great impact on one's destiny and can drive people to acts of great courage and compassion or degrade them to commit the most heinous of crimes. The strong bonds and unstinting trust and faith of family and friends alone provide the strength to cope with and rise above traumatic experiences in life. The harsh reality is that crimes against women have continued to flourish. The book is unique in content and format, the lucid language speaking to a very wide swath of English-reading population all over the world, lending itself very well to translations to reach readers in other countries. Surely, a book that must be read.
