Krátky popis
FROM THE BEST-SELLING AUTHOR OF MY SEDITIOUS HEART AND THE MINISTRY
OF UTMOST HAPPINESS, A NEW AND PRESSING DISPATCH FROM THE HEART OF
THE CROWD AND THE SOLITUDE OF A WRITER'S DESKThe chant of 'Azadi!'
- Urdu for 'Freedom!' - is the slogan of the freedom struggle in
Kashmir against what Kashmiris see as the Indian Occupation.
Ironically, it also became the chant of millions on the streets of
India against the project of Hindu Nationalism. Even as Arundhati
Roy began to ask what lay between these two calls for Freedom - a
chasm or a bridge? - the streets fell silent.Not only in India, but
all over the world. The Coronavirus brought with it another, more
terrible understanding of Azadi, making a nonsense of international
borders, incarcerating whole populations, and bringing the modern
world to a halt like nothing else ever could. In this series of
electrifying essays, Arundhati Roy challenges us to reflect on the
meaning of freedom in a world of growing authoritarianism.The
essays include meditations on language, public as well as private,
and on the role of fiction and alternative imaginations in these
disturbing times. The pandemic, she says, is a portal between one
world and another. For all the illness and devastation it has left
in its wake, it is an invitation to the human race, an opportunity,
to imagine another world.
