Bestselling Novel ‘Water Drumming In The Soul’ Available Free on Amazon for Limited Time

The bestselling literary fiction ebook ‘Water Drumming In The Soul’ by author Eric Madeen will be available at no charge from January 31 through February 1 exclusively at Amazon. The novel, based on Madeen’s travels in Africa as a former Peace Corps volunteer, represents what the author describes as a step back from the current AI zeitgeist toward Romanticism, focusing on human connection and cultural authenticity.

In the novel, Peace Corps volunteer David Fields arrives in an equatorial African village and becomes captivated by a woman water drumming—playing a stream as a drum while singing. Their ensuing love story forms the core of what reviewers have called a vibrant and emotionally resonant narrative. Professor Zaheer Baber of the University of Toronto praised the novel’s authentic portrayal of African culture, noting that ‘Madeen’s storytelling prowess shines through and resonates with authenticity.’

The work has drawn comparisons to literary masters, with author Elizabeth Montano stating it is ‘on par with works by whom we consider masters … Hemingway definitely comes to mind.’ One Amazon reviewer described the novel as ‘a rollercoaster of emotions that’ll have you laughing, crying, and everything in between’ while exploring themes of culture, identity, and human connection.

Madeen, a senior associate professor of literature and Amazon multi-bestselling author, draws from his own experiences as a Peace Corps volunteer in Francophone Gabon, where he constructed a primary school complex in an equatorial village. This background informs what readers have described as the novel’s vigorous fictional reality. The author’s other works include the Tokyo-focused ‘Tokyo-ing!’ and the travelogue ‘Asian Trail Mix: True Tales From Borneo to Japan,’ both available through his author page at https://www.amazon.com/stores/Eric-Madeen/author/B08VGRNJVW?.

The free promotion offers readers access to a novel that, according to its description, provides a contrast to what the late Fredric Jameson described in ‘Postmodernism, or, The Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism’ as a cultural condition where the artificial becomes so prevalent there’s nothing natural to compare it to. Instead, ‘Water Drumming In The Soul’ presents what Madeen characterizes as a return to Romanticism through its exploration of love, culture, and human experience in an African setting. The novel’s ending, described as having a multiplicity of interpretations, echoes Vladimir Nabokov’s observation that the finest art is not simple and sincere but rather deceitful and complex.
