Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. Contents: 1. Statue. 2. The fairy tale of Mohanpur. Glossary. The two stories in this collection Statue (Murti) and The Fairy Tale of Mohanpur (Mohanpurer Rupkatha) are touching poignant tales in both of which the protagonists are old women. In the first a tragic for bidden love returns to haunt Dulali now an old woman pre occupied only with filling her stomach and surviving from day to day. In the second Andi loses her eyes through a combination of poverty societal indifference and governmental apathy even as she persists in her belief in fairy tale solutions. Mahasweta Devi is at her most tender in her sensitive delicately drawn portraits of these two old women although her trenchant pen is as ruthless as ever in delineating the socio economic oppression within which they are forced to survive. Though extremely readable as moving stories for the fiction lover they also yield layers of deeper significance upon closer reading. As translator Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak says: Here in this text you'll find what Kamala Visweswaran has called woman as subaltern the first story and subaltern women the second. In my way of reading there is here a solid critique of nationalism as an end in itself and a loving critique of how male gendered nationalism can solve a young man's crisis; and of course a very strong critique of the failure of decolonization in the second story. The realization that as time passes for a woman the ideology of love remains a memory but acknowledges defeat in the hands of hunger is an exquisite aporia in the first story almost between species life and species being. And in the second the extraordinary resourcefulness of this village community of women and the guileless courage and simplicity of Andi her relationship with her eldest daughter in law and so on are again a responsible narrative that offers a critique no less powerful than a merely reasonable one. How tellingly Devi outlines the limits of mere goodwill indeed I'm always amazed by the theoretical delicacy of Mahasweta's stories. The aporias between gendering on the one hand (feudal transitional and subaltern) and the ideology of national liberation (as tragedy and as farce) are also worth contemplating. 106 pp.
