Soft cover. Condizione: New. 1986. Labda, a rain-washed, sun-soaked village near Darjeeling. Six friends Karnabahadur, Tshering, Ambar, Buddha, Rajvir and Sarita attend school together here. Elsewhere, on the streets of Darjeeling, a struggle is brewing for a separate state of Gorkhaland in India. Soon, the hot winds of that violent Andolan sweep inexorably into Labda and transform the village into a battleground. Students turn on their teachers, villages and families are divided along party lines, and everyone is forced to take sides. Those who don t are compelled to run away, never to return.Spanning thirty years, This Place of Mud and Bone follows the lives of these schoolmates as they negotiate a political struggle that continually shapeshifts but never ends. The novel tells the story of how Karnabahadur transformed into Angulimaal and why Buddha was forced to kill him; it describes why Tshering became Tshering the Murderer and, eventually, Mad Tshering; it explores the circumstances that made Ambar hang himself; and describes why Sarita ended up selling eggs in a hospital. Even as it captures the minutiae of individual, yet intertwined, lives, this capacious novel also a contemporary history of the Darjeeling hills shows how people learn to absorb violence and live with it, and how a man who has made up his mind can be the strongest force on earth.
