Soft cover. Condizione: New. Atamjit's play Come back from the War (Murh aa Lama Ton) is a very uniquetext in many ways. Perhaps the first play in Punjabi language that deals with war the First World War as the title itself indicates, it is a multi-layered text that unfolds against the backdrop of the din and chaos of the First World War being fought around Ypres, the war theatre in West Flanders, Belgium. Anchored as it is in the specific historical situation of the Great War, it undoubtedly foregrounds the barbarity, violence, atrocity and futility of the War. However, through its complex structure, use of the technique of montage, deft intermingling of the real and the surreal, and self-conscious intertextuality, it transcends its limited situation to bring into sharp focus many other themes which are of eternal significance to humanity. In fact, because of its polyphonic and multilogic structure, it is difficult to place this text under the disciplinary economy of a particular type or genre. As it is, the fact is that each literary text, with its irrepressible recalcitrance and excess, overruns all limits and boundaries assigned to it. The labels are like nets we cast over the play of difference in plural to master differences and to control them. Come back from the Waris a text that, in very stubbornly tending to breach all borders, asserts its uniqueness in its difference from others.
