Soft cover. Condizione: New. Pratibha Ray's Uttarmarga: Where Freedom Reigns is a paean to the courage and sacrifices of ordinary people during the freedom struggle. It is a political allegory debunking the notion that Gandhi and Nehru alone orchestrated the fall of the British Empire. Originally written in Odia, the novel depicts not just people's enthusiasm and sacrifices during the freedom struggle but also their disillusionment with a freedom that failed to fulfill their cherished dreams of equality and prosperity in postcolonial India. The protagonist, Diganta Keshari, leaves home and joins the freedom struggle, hoping to see the country become the ideal kingdom Ram Rajya. But when he returns to his village after twenty years of Independence, he encounters a new form of oppression and evil perpetrated by people they considered their own.When a poor young woman is raped by a politician, Diganta renews his vow to fight, this time for justice.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The book historicizes the surge of writing in Odia among the people who migrated to the Americas in search of higher education and fulfilling careers over the last fifty years. The thirty-five short stories in Odia, one in Kosali, and the eleven memoirs included here recapitulate the joy, pain, struggle, and nostalgia of writers torn between their sense of belonging to the home they've left behind and the life they've built here. As most of them would say, Odia, the language, has helped them preserve their identity and ward off the fear of the erasure of the self. The narratives also celebrate, as Salman Rushdie, the great postcolonial writer from India, would say, an eclectic vision of life.…
