This novel paints a gruesome picture of a raging fire that consumes everything along its track and thus necessitates relocation of victims from the disaster-prone area to a more secured but uninhabited dry land, which itself needs preservation and conservation. It locates the plane where literature meets ecology and is an invitation to excavate environmental literature or mine sites of ecology fossilized in works of art. According to Dr. Nforbin, this book transcends the duality of art and life and is a response to today's global ecological crisis.
