By Saradia Chatterjee A Humorless Death is a short story that weaves a plot of revenge behind the funny faces of circus clowns. Little boy Kevin goes to a circus with his Grandpa. He is mesmerized by the ostentations of the circus and the fascinating trickery of clown Zozo, who, on Grandpa’s insistence, performs some tricks for Kevin. That’s when he decides he is going to be a clown in future. Kevin grows up, and in spite of other opportunities, he clings to his passion for clowning. He goes to Zozo in hopes of becoming the latter’s apprentice. His hopes are shattered. With a feeling of vengeance bloating in him, he assures himself he will still be a clown and he will have the last laugh. What follows is a tale of horror unfolding behind the silly acts of circus clowns.The story is unpredictable. The unexpected happens and it is sure to make readers jump in their skin. The desperation of ordinary human beings when governed by a troubled mind can be very intimidating and this story shows that fact. It is a peek into human psychology. The writing style is impressive. However, for me, the story looked very promising in the first few pages, but as I proceeded with it, it lost some of its charm. A short story of this genre usually leaves behind strong reverberations and even after I’m done reading, I cannot help thinking about the characters and the plot. That was not the case with this story. I thought it ended very abruptly. The last part came as a surprise, of course, but it seemed like an unnecessarily quick conclusion. The passions of the protagonist didn’t strike me as quite strong but the story demands that the protagonist have strong sentiments. I was not particularly attracted to any of the characters. Overall, I would rate this book as average. But if you want to get hold of a story that has something thrillingly unique about it, you can grab this one.

Like all of us, Kevin wants to see his dream come true, and despite his efforts, life hasn't quite turned out the way he expected it. In JR Bournville's debut short story, we follow Kevin from childhood to adulthood, among the archaic world of the circus and clowning.What struck me about A Humourless Death is just how realistic it was. It appears simple on the surface, but it hits our inner selves. Kevin is Kevin, sure, but he is so much more than that. Kevin is us. We want him to become a clown, because that means we get to have our dreams come true too. A Humourless Death is a clever short story that will even shock you as its climax appears. It captures the spirit of every reader, it has emotion, it has pizazz, it has tricks up its sleeve.
