I have a confession to make. I’m not that fond of fiction (as a literary genre or otherwise), so when I came across “The white hairs” by Noah K. Mullette – Gillman I admit that I wasn’t exactly thrilled. Still, something in the minimal yet straight-to-the-point cover artwork and Doric photography crammed within the pages caught my attention and got me reading.

Half a dozen pages later, I realized I wasn’t holding a generic fiction novel but rather a book of shadows if you will, a personal journal of the writer’s soul: delivered in flowing language, “the white hairs” invokes strong imagery that cannot but be imprinted deeply at once at one’s ‘reading eye’. This novel... More > takes you into a wild trip through the hidden pathways of a soul “bloody but unbowed”. Strong colors dominate every scene that you can almost see flooding your mind: the bright white of the ice, the pitch black of the void. The writer artfully interchanges these color-schemes of his narrative with the transformations of the main character, Farshoul.

It’s a novel of strong symbolisms and primeval motifs given in a dream-like way and with that same profound sense of clarity and transcendent realism one only experiences during REM sleep!

Reading “the white hairs” leaves a literary taste of an out-of-body experience. It’s almost like astral projection. So, if you’re scared or reluctant to engage in such practices, then definitely the next best thing is reading “the white hairs”! < Less
