A Heap of Ashes

Mishra, Krishna Mohan

Abstract Details

2005, Master of Arts, Miami University, English: Creative Writing.
A Heap of Ashes is a collection of nine short stories most of them set in Nepal. In my stories, I attempt to show how my characters’ thoughts and lives are affected by their socio-cultural milieu as well as their memories of the past. Though my stories don’t fall into any particular type, it’s easy to see certain recurrent themes and issues, such as loss, memory, dream, fear, melancholy, nostalgia and poverty. My stories are usually based on my own life experiences and reflect the protagonists’ problems with growth and adjustment to life and reality. My protagonists are usually male, ranging in age between adolescence and middle-age.
