Book summary

Set on the seediest backstreets of contemporary Calcutta, this World Fantasy Award-winning novel deals with the nefarious activities of a cult that worships the destructive goddess Kali, and an American poet who gets pulled into their ever-tightening control.

Media reviews

"This book is not for the weak of stomach, or of heart, but it is an enlightening look at Calcutta--as the city itself is woven into the story. With his debut novel, Dan Simmons far surpasses what is usually looked on as horror, but does it in such a way that you don't realize what you're being led through until the ending slams you all at once."
