dc.description.abstract	The exegesis explores diverse themes, as it probes into the magical realism of ghosts and dreams, negotiates with the dead, understands how writing is a form of narrative therapy, stretches the English language, relates the immigrant experience and is a narrative on the narrative of Snakes, Cows and Avocado Sandwiches, which is, a collection of short stories and poems inspired by a mother’s life and paradoxically written after her death in a bid to keep the family history up-to-date and, a therapeutic indulgence on the author’s part, an incidental/occupational hazard of autobiographies.
