Ked in Kirmland
By Wipas Srithong
[S.E.A. Write Award-winning author of 'The Dwarf']
Ked in Kirmland is a dissonant, bitter-tasting work of fiction by Wipas Srithong—a deep-dive narrative that plunges into the core of its subjects, dissecting and exposing the hidden nuances that lie beneath the superficial.
This is a literary odyssey toward an immaculate space, navigating a labyrinth where virtual worlds, the void, hollows, hauntings, schizophrenia, and chemotherapy intersect.
Kirmland is a twilight world—a parallel universe connected to our own through a multi-dimensional portal discovered by Professor Shadow, an ambitious physicist. In a clandestine alliance with a corrupt authoritarian regime, Shadow intended to illicitly seize alien technology from Kirmland. However, a catastrophic accident leaves the professor hideously disfigured and grants him terrifying powers. Worse, the portal remains permanently breached, creating a rift between worlds and triggering a mounting tension that threatens total annihilation. It falls upon Dr. Banzai to hunt down the rogue physicist before a war of cataclysmic proportions erupts.
Set against the backdrop of life within a digital simulation, characters must fulfill their objectives. Yet, the moment one dares to think beyond the confines of the screen, the unforeseen is unleashed.
Srithong strips bare the primal instincts of humanity through virtual voids and a reality that is never gentle. If you are seeking literature that "consumes" the psyche and leaves you drifting in the vacuum of existence, Ked in Kirmland is that book.
