Ref is a hard-hitting novel that portrays the grim realities of life in the Kalabagan slum.
It follows the lives of five individuals, where only Sani has any education.
The rest have no significance in society—they are born, they fade away.
Their lives are driven by primitive urges of lust, greed, and violence.
Their dreams revolve around quick wealth, their love is reduced to physical desire.
Their livelihood involves scamming people, burning corpses, and indulging in various addictions.
Yet, humanity lurks within them:
- One of them vomits instead of committing rape.
- Another loses the key to relationships and goes mad.
Ref ruthlessly exposes the self-absorbed escapism of the educated and wealthy, delivering a harsh blow to their indifference.
