Produktbeschreibung
The playwright Narayan Sahoo brilliantly knocks on society's door to glance over the agonies and suffering the dominated class is experiencing daily through his O Saba Sesha Loka. This has been translated from Odia into English as And the Wretched. Here, he focuses on how people experiencing poverty suffer unendingly and their voice is unheard diachronically. Moving across the axes of Time and Space, the picture remains almost the same, though the illustrations he has stated are of this Indian Peninsula. The powerless and the voiceless raise their voices against the powerful and dominant classes for approving their natural rights. The writer advocates the mantra (dictum), as prescribed in the dialogue of Great Man, can be simplified that nothing is possible through negotiation so far. The alternative to this is revolution, the means of ascertaining one's rights and individuality. He painstakingly cites Ekalavya's case from the Mahabharat, the historical case of the Sun Temple of Odisha and the contemporary society wherein we are all the subjects successfully. He has undoubtedly justified the title of his play. Let's look at the vignettes he has snapped in his creative oeuvre for the wider readership.
