The Ten Incarnations of Adam Avatar

‘Tell me if I am mad,’ Adam Avatar, asks his new psychiatrist. Adam, now 49, claims to have lived through five centuries of Caribbean history, reincarnated every 50 years after dying at the hand of the mysterious Shadowman. As Avatar’s narratives of his past selves are revealed to have an authenticity that cannot be explained away, Dr Sankar’s perplexity grows.
