Blurb :
Silver Hair Sins is one of India’s first visual-fiction, with more than half of the thriller narrated by cinematized photographs.
It is set in the future, at a time when religio-politico divide reaches its tipping point, and technology steps in to save humanity. An Artificial Intelligence (AI) merges All Religions to create One God AI.
BUT, WHAT IF THIS GOD AI IS MISGUIDED?
This gripping story is of a family – Mary, Azad and Aasma – as they grapple to survive the dystopian world of Murder, Manipulation, Sacrifice and Love.
Silver Hair Sins is a stark social commentary about today where aspects of religion are being selectively chosen by political and religious leaders, only to create and then exploit our differences.
SO, HOW DO WE EXPOSE THIS DARKNESS?
We need an excuse to flare an unsensational debate on Fanaticism, Intolerance, Apathy, Patriarchy and Hypocrisy, in our drawing rooms and cafeterias. Silver Hair Sins begs to be that very excuse.
Review :
An excellent read, thought provoking and insightful.Absolutely loved reading and leafing thru this book. Anyone who loves sci-fi will totally loved this book. The real beauty of this book are illustrations and unique storyline. I can't say much without giving the plot away, but this is a very very strange story expertly told without a single wasted word.The story revolves around Akbar , Meera , Azad , Aasma and Mary. Set in near future.Sinners were divided and they were controlled by the silver chips placed in their body which runs on AI ( Artificial Intelligence) CROSP ( Criminal Reform one silver Programme).The book takes a dig at issues and problems exist in society.( religion, caste,  gender inequality etc.).The cover of the book compel you to pick it up. Title is apt to the story. Language of the book is simple and easy to understand. Definitely a good summer afternoon read.
Highly recommend.
