Tales of Ethos (Short Stories)

This book is Dr. K. V. Dominic’s fourth collection of short stories in English. It happens to be his 52nd book. There are 25 short stories brimming with ethos in this collection. We are living now in a society that gives least importance to ethics and good values. Both religion and politics fail to impart moral values to the people particularly to the younger generation. We find violence and murder everywhere. The younger generation is attracted to violent acts and they have lost fear of seeing bloodshed. The social media like movies and TV serials play a major role in instilling such unhealthy temperaments in the minds of teenagers and youth. The absence of value based education in schools and colleges is the main reason for the younger generation to go astray from morality. Unlike the conventional story tellers, Prof. Dominic writes his stories with a purpose in mind, i.e., imparting good values. He believes that writers can influence the society if their writing is capable of injecting good values to the minds of the readers. This book is aimed at it.
