Robin Hood is a heroic outlaw in English folklore, and, according to legend, was also a highly skilled archer and swordsman. Known for "robbing from the rich and giving to the poor", assisted by a group of fellow outlaws known as his "Merry Men".
The story delves into the deep-rooted human psychology of associating one's general well-being with certain self-fulfilling beliefs that defies every rational consideration. This condition often manifests in patients undergoing medical rehabilitation, much to the despair of the attending medical supervisors. Attending supervisors in such situations oft take recourse to deceptive interventions that break such irrational biases to revive healthy confidence in patients and thus bring about a noticeable improvement in the physical and mental parameters of the suffering individuals. Rajshekhar Basu alias Parashuram or Parashurama or Parshuram, the master humorist, adopts the seemingly grave malaise in his trademark narrative of wit and dry humor and weaves together yet another laugh riot to uplift the human mood in the face of irrational disposition.

At the heart of Dark Romanticism is its brooding, pessimistic tone, its emphasis on the supernatural and the sins of humanity, and its use of iconic symbols and horrifying imagery. The classic Dark Romantic authors (Edgar Allan Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne and Herman Melville) are represented in the stories and poems in this volume, as well as some authors who are not commonly included in this genre. And then there are the poets and folklorists momentarily dabbling in the themes of death, loss and the supernatural, resulting in a collection of classic tales that will chill the listener to the bone.Mostra libro
