Description
Omar Khayyam Shakil had three mothers who shared the symptoms of pregnancy, as they did everything else, inseparably. At their six breasts, Omar was warned against all feelings and nuances of shame. It was training which would prove useful when he left his mothers' fortress (via the dumb-waiter) to face his shameless future. . . . As captivating fairy-tale, devastating political satire and exquisite, uproarious entertainment, Shame is a novel without rival.
