Acts of God by Kanan Gill

Synopsis:

Mirroring the craft of Neil Gaiman, and the humor and genius of Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett, Kanan Gill comes up with a story that will surprise readers in the most unexpected of ways. That is because, in Acts of God, Kanan Gill raises and answers the most confounding of questions: What does it mean to be human?

In Kanan Gill’s wildly entertaining debut novel, a Danish cop unintentionally ends up as a clothing-optional leader of a worldwide group of Science Haters, a sentient piece of wall struggles with the limits of its artistic expression, and a lapel pin’s habit of always giving truthful advice invariably causes utter chaos.

In Acts of God, Kanan Gill puts his own spin on the long tradition of comedic science fiction. By doing so, he achieves a delightful alchemy of humor, imagination, and philosophy. Blending vivid inventiveness and hilarious storytelling, with an intriguing interrogation of the very nature of existence, Acts of God marks the evolution of one of India’s finest comedic voices.
