An Indian professor goes to Poland in the early eighties during a critical time in that country: political turmoil prevails and -- for the first time in the history of any socialist country -- intellectuals and workers have joined together to revolt against the ruling political system. Alternately narrated by the Professor in the first person as protagonist, and in the third person as the author the novel, Comrades of Jesus is the story of Anna and Pyotr, a divorced Polish couple; of the burgeoning love between Naren, a young Indian diplomat, and Asha, who is of mixed parentage; of an Indian intellectual settled in Warsaw; and of an artist who only paints butterflies. It is the story of India and Poland, set in the historical background of the social and political contradictions in these two countries. The Poles are the Comrades of Jesus, waiting for his second coming and the Indians, for an avatar.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The Poison Roots Poison Roots is the story of a young man, Kesavan, who is a college student, studying in pre-independent India. Critical of traditional religious practices, he scorns symbols of his high caste roots, especially the rather orthodox, autocratic attitude of his father. To overcome the shackles of his orthodox Brahmin background, he seeks intellectual interaction with erudite elders as well as a group of young Communists in his college. National award winning author Indira Parthasarathy has traced the journey of Kesavan, from being a disillusioned adolescent in a nascent nation, to one who accepts his destiny as a member of the educated upper caste. Etched with an idiom of everyday language along with shades of superior word-craft, this novel has a universal taste of the process of growing up. Indira Parthasarthy Writing under the pseudonym of Indira Parthasarathy, Padma Shri Dr Ranganathan Parthasarathy is a scholar, academician, creative writer, literary critic and cultural historian. He has seventeen novels, four collections of novellas, six collections of short stories and fifteen plays to his credit. He has been bestowed with the Sahitya Academy Award (1977) for his novel Kuruthip Punal, and the Sangeet Natak Academy Award (2004), amongst many more honours. Dr Parthasarathy was awarded the Padma Shri by the Government of India (2010) for his literary and academic achievements.

Aggiungi al carrelloSoft cover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition. The three plays reveal Indira Parthasarathy's abiding interest in the nature of the human self as multilayered and problematic. Comforting Illusions makes a brilliant use of the mode of the Absurd Theatre to examine the loss of meaning in the most enduring institution in Indian society, namely the family, and especially conjugal relationship. Rain creatively adapts the insights of Freudian psychoanalysis to problematize our naive understanding of kinship relations. Shrouded Bodies, which displays an androgynous imagination to an even greater degree, offers a detached, often witty analysis of the motivations that force men and women into illegal relationships. Indira Parthasarathy everywhere demonstrates his ability to delve into issues of self and society and formulate his perceptions in cool, argumentative intellectual structures. Indira Parthasarathy, pseudonym of Padma Shri (Dr) Ranganathan Parthasarathy (b.1930), is a creative writer, literary and cultural critic and historian who started his career as an academic. Widely acknowledged as one of those who have revolutionized modern Tamil drama, he has so far authored nine full-length plays and seven one-act plays. The best known of these are Mazhai, translated here as Rain, Pasi, translated here as Comforting Illusions, Aurangzeb, a historical play, which won a Tamil Nadu Government Award, Nandan Kathai, a subversive retelling of a Tamil legend about a Dalit saint, and Raamaanujar (1996), a play about the great Vaishnavite saint, which was awarded the K.K. Birla Foundation's Saraswati Samman in 1999. Besides his dramatic output, Indira Parthasarathy has also published sixteen novels, six anthologies of short stories, four anthologies of short novels and a volume of critical essays. He was honoured with the Sahitya Akademi award for his novel Kuruthi-p-punal, which has been translated into all the major Indian languages, and the Sangeet Natak Akademi award in 2004. He is the only Tamil writer to have been honoured with both the awards. He was given the Lifetime Achievement Award last year at The Hindu Literature for Life event. (jacket).

Caught in a sorry vortex of self-denial and what-could-have-been, the discontented government official wants to do the impossible be young again. Having decided that his marriage is sparkless and his spouse unremarkable, he decides to woo a much younger theatre actress who vaguely resembles his witty and opinionated ex. As Amirtham gives into self-aggrandizing visions glamorizing a humdrum life coming apart at the seams he flails and fails in the tangles of his own making. In this deeply insightful novel, both endearing and heartbreaking, urban Delhi of the early seventies is brought alive by Tamil literary icon, Sahitya Akademi fellow and Padma Shri-awardee Indira Parthasarathy. Hilarious, reflective and wise, this moving tale expertly courses through unsettling remorse, directionless passion, and the fragile business of loving and being loved.
