The Weeping Gods of Manipur Book Series
by The Weeping Gods of Manipur
I write about Manipur, her pain, her tragedy, her anguish, her dreams and hopes. I talk with her hills and trees, her orchids, her grasses and flowers, I whisper with her wind and float with her clouds and hum together with her rain. In her rocks and stones I etch memories and songs. In her valleys I whisper with her echoes. And In her forest I dream together with Manipur. In her pain and sorrow I bloom with her lilies in colors and colors and in her misery and tragedy I imitate and weave the movements of the Gods.Phone: +91 9871952759Email: [email protected]: amazon.com/author/hijammonarsingh

The Trembling Song
This is a hauntingly dark piece of folklore, evocative of the "Grimm" tradition where the line between love and cruelty is blurred by the necessity of order or the weight of a curse.The story of the "The Dark Princess" and her son is a heavy allegory that deals with the painful intersection of maternal instinct and the cold demands of destiny. This comes from the book ;"The Art of Rebellion".

The Four Kings
The Four Kings: A Study in Power and UnityThe narrative functions as an allegory for the four pillars of sovereignity: Wealth, Military Might, Psychological Influence, and Geopolitical Strategy. Each king demonstrates a mastery over a different force that can either build or obliterate a civilization, yet their individual displays only result in shock, exhaustion, and mutual intimidation.The allegory talks of limitation, dominance, necessity and peace and forms the beginning chapters of the book, "The Evolution of Violence", the ninth installation in the book series, The Weeping Gods of Manipur.
