Hieronymus

Hieronymus is a fiction novel about the life and work of the iconic painter Hieronymus Bosch, which preserves the historical context of the dark end of the Middle Ages in Northern Europe.

Based on the little historical information about the artist’s life, the novel tries to dissect the context in which Bosch’s imagination incorporated the sacred and the profane, the symbol and the metaphor, around which the dramatic life of the creator revolves.

Some documented facts of Bosch’s life regarding his marriage to a wealthy woman whose dowry allowed him the freedom of creation, or his survival of a plague epidemic and the great fire of 1463 in 's-Hertogenbosch, are mentioned in the novel to identify the artist’s personality and recreate the social and historical context of the western European Middle Ages, haunted by the fear of the Inquisition and religious reform. The artist immerses in the creation process in which the factual circumstances disappear and re-emerge into his artistic universe populated by fantastic characters, grotesque situations, tortures and suffering, that evaporates at the end of the story like a nightmare in the morning light.

As with the story of Cain and Abel, the two MacKenzie brothers, Duncan and Cameron, do not get along – never have. For years, there has been almost no communication between brothers until the death of their father, John Jay.

Cam feels compelled to return for the funeral and the subsequent hearing of his father’s will, though he is uncertain what drives him. Although Cam expects nothing from the estate, surprisingly, the will decrees that he and Dun should travel to the High Uinta Wilderness (a special place for his father) to settle their differences.

Needless to say, both brothers do not return from the wilderness, but unfortunately, that still does not resolve the matter. Now the will is being contested by a third party claiming to be a previously unknown daughter.

Through DNA testing and some serious sleuthing, Cam discovers nothing is as he thought, and even he, Cameron MacKenzie, is not who he thought he was.

Fire Born

An eloquently narrated story with metaphorical religious myths and a virtuoso composition on magic realism and psychoanalytic forms, Fire Born is an enrapturing tale of harsher times, set on an alluvial land in Bangladesh that will make readers appreciate the efforts to bury the past and see the future from an elevated philosophical eye.

Noor Mohammed, the incestuous child of Helal Uddin and his schizophrenic sister, Helena, becomes the center of the story. To avoid being an outcast, it was arranged for Helena to marry a greedy blackmailer. Noor, meanwhile, is a born genius who memorizes the entire Quran and becomes a hafiz. However, he also suffers from hallucinations. He experiences extraordinary events as the struggle to grab alluvial lands becomes part of the political power struggle of the late ’60s between India and Pakistan. This juxtaposition of reality, desire, and unconscious mind makes Fire Born a unique intersection, where marvels happen while characters question the foundations of their beliefs.
