Beschrijving
Wild Fictions is a collection of essays written over the past 25 years or so and published in various journals and periodicals.
The essays can be clubbed under the broad headings of writings on literature and language, climate change and environment, human lives, travel and discoveries, and opinions and conversations. They focus on the abiding concerns that are reflected in Ghosh\'s works of fiction and non-fiction: colonization, colonialism and its effects; the complex and delicate link between humans and nature; the ways in which we understand and interact with the world we live in; the importance of history and (re)discovery; how we tell stories, how we use language; and the importance of speaking and writing on issues and events that are key to our times.
\'We owe a great debt to Ghosh\'s brilliant mind, avenging pen, and huge soul\' NAOMI KLEIN, author of This Changes Everything
