This definitely was not the place for good people to survive. Forget good people, this was not the place for anyone to survive. Everything was clear to me now and I could see it all. Eklavya had realised this, years back, and therefore had shifted his focus on only making money, and nothing else. Personally, he surely was a perfect blend of compassion and prudence but now was outraged by the sudden image assassination of his boss. There was anger running through the veins of the ones who worked genuinely hard. Time had come to take charge than to succumb to the games of the corporate goons. This was the challenge, and this challenge was pushing them to prove a point. Enough was enough, and now it was time to pay back.
The Moon Is Calling: Read the Stars! This is a story of a cursed land called Zynpagua. Not many years ago, Zynpagua was a part of the Earth. It was ruled by King Soto and Queen Sussaina. The queen possessed supernatural powers, which she used to bring happiness and prosperity to her people. Zynpagua thus was a very happy land. But an evil eye was watching it. It was the eye of the scientist Drudan. He tricked the king and the queen to ignore their kingdom. This angered the Sun and Stars, and they refused to shower their blessing on Zynpagua. In the meantime, Drudan created a fatal violet light to kill King Soto. The violet light generated catastrophic movements that separated Zynpagua from the Earth, carrying with it all the people on the land. Without the support of the Sun, Zynpagua became a dark planet. Drudan imprisoned Queen Sussaina behind the shadow of the moon, while King Soto could not be traced. Zynpagua became a cursed land. While in prison, Queen Sussaina secretly gives birth to a girl and transfers all her powers to her and sends her to the Earth. Now the only solution to Zynpaguas misery is the return of this princess.
This volume invites the reader to join in with the recent focus on subjectivity and self-reflection, as the means of understanding and engaging with the social and historical changes in the world through storytelling. It examines the symbiosis between anthropology and fiction, on the one hand, by looking at various ways in which the two fields co-emerge in a fruitful manner, and, on the other, by re-examining their political, aesthetic, and social relevance to world history. Following the intellectual crisis of the 1970s, anthropology has been criticized for losing its ethnographic authority and vocation. However, as a consequence of this, ethnographic scope has opened towards more subjective and self-reflexive forms of knowledge and representations, such as the crossing of the boundaries between autobiography and ethnography. The collection of essays re-introduces the importance of authorship in relationship to readership, making a ground-breaking move towards the study of fictional texts and images as cultural, sociological, and political reflections of the time and place in which they were produced. In this way, the contributors here contribute to the widening of the ethnographic scope of contemporary anthropology. A number of the chapters were presented as papers in two conferences organised by the Association of Social Anthropologists of the UK and Commonwealth at Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, entitled “Arts and aesthetics in a globalising world” (2012), and at the University of Exeter, entitled “Symbiotic Anthropologies” (2015). Each chapter offers a unique method of working in the grey area between and beyond the categories of fiction and non-fiction, while creatively reflecting upon current methodological, ethical, and theoretical issues, in anthropology and cultural studies. This is an important book for undergraduate and post-graduate students of anthropology, cultural and media studies, art theory, and creative writing, as well as academic researchers in these fields.
