Summary, etc | The Starkness of It is a selection culled out from the essays which formed the corpus of the now defunct fortnightly 'Calcutta Diary' column in the Economic and Political Weekly; these were written in the corridor of time between February 1986, when the author had just vacated one political position, and August 1993, when he took up another.<br/>None of the issues reflected upon in the essays have suddenly been sprung upon us; they have been there all along, in various forms and shades, echoing the tussle between faith and cynicism. Several of the essays in The Starkness of It betray a pre-occupation with the generic problem. Does it then follow that the more it changes, the more it remains the same? It is best to confess: one hardly knows the answer.<br/> |
