!! This book provides examples of:
* MagicRealism: Only in South Asia/the so-called “Muslim World” and later leading back into it, thus very much portraying the region as “the other”.
* {{Squick}}: Molestation by angels.
* WeirdnessCensor: [[InvertedTrope Inverted]]: To avoid having to come to terms with the harsh reality of his molestation, Abir “rationalizes” the event by considering it a supernatural occurrence, a visit from angels.
