Starting with the theme of sex and adolescence, tolerance and violence, balance and ambivalence finally unfurls a twilight zone of complex human existence, of Blake's innocence and experience.

In Blissful Hell, the novel Humayun made his debut with, is still a best-seller, rightly called 'a contemporary classic' that stood the test of Time and Aesthetics.
