Dubai [UAE], August 12: In a landmark celebration of literary brilliance, the International Author Excellence Awards 2025, hosted by Wings Publication International, proudly honoured S. Aparnaa Lathikaa for her critically acclaimed psychological thriller, Soul of Coffin. The ceremony brought together leading authors, thought leaders, and creative visionaries from across the globe to celebrate originality, emotional depth, and the power of the written word.
Soul of Coffin unfolds as a haunting psychological maze, where the fragile boundaries of reality blur under the weight of guilt, memory, and unresolved trauma. Set against the eerie backdrop of an abandoned water park, the story follows Alex as he navigates twisted visions from his past, guided by the mysterious presence of a Lifeguard whose voice dances between dream and truth. With chilling imagery and poetic unease, Lathikaa invites readers to descend a towering slide--both literal and symbolic--into the depths of the subconscious. In this world, the line between escape and surrender becomes perilously thin. As Lathikaa herself writes, "The truth lies just beneath the surface"--and in Soul of Coffin, that truth cuts deep.
S. Aparnaa Lathikaa's work is fearless, introspective, and unsettling in the most captivating way. Soul of Coffin has earned critical and reader acclaim for its gripping narrative, layered symbolism, and profound exploration of the human psyche. More than just a genre-defying thriller, it serves as a mirror to the complexities of the mind.
This recognition crowns a remarkable year for Lathikaa, who has also been awarded an Honorary Doctorate by the World Human Rights Protection Commission, the Noble Seva Ratna Award by Noble World Records, and the Bharat Gaurav Ratna Shri Samman Award by the BGRSSC. Her contributions--spanning literature, social activism, and entrepreneurship--establish her as a true modern Renaissance woman.
