I enjoyed reading Dark Flowers, and I think it is splendid that Mr.Ashanti has probed a culture that is so rich; his work nourishes thelove of an Indian culture that fills the ocean. His style of writing ismagnificent and impressive indeed. Mr. Ashanti, through his work, hasgiven soul to his characters and thusly made them immortal.
