Peace Pretty Please : A Tale of Two Countries

Description

The two neighbouring countries were living normally, as neighbours do, with skirmishes, animosity, and verbal acrimony. In short, things were banal. And then came the plague that changed the dynamics; nothing would ever be normal again! Children were dying for no reason. There was no disease, no virus, no rhyme or reason, yet they were dying in what resembled an epidemic. Was it really an outbreak, planned murrain, a mischievous plot, or a curse? Or was it a clarion call for a revolution for everlasting peace? Would these deaths of the juveniles be confined to the two countries, or would they defy the porous borders and enfold the countries of the world? Would it be that no child would be left on earth? The earth stripped of all children, its future generation, an earth alive and yet dead in its future! The author regales readers with political anecdotes from around the world over the decades, connecting historic events in a contemporary fictional world with a protagonist who is a nameless dead child. As the story jumps the Berlin Wall, witnesses the 26/11, runs in the fields of Vietnam with the Yankees playing guard it pays homage to the victims of the Nanjing Massacre and as it soars in the sky with the children of Operation Babylift it bids adieu to the Scientist who filled the granaries of the world and killed half its population and cries RIP, ROAR IN PEACE. Laced with nameless characters , famous and infamous historic events, this book is an ode to peace and a fervent cry to humanity.
