Essay: Remains of the body
Hindustan TimesCan I tell you the most disturbing dream I’ve had in my life? There was still a little life left in him, but it didn’t look like he would survive the night. At the end of Thebes’ civil war, the victorious king Creon decrees that the body of the rebel Polynices will be denied the respect of last rites and will be left to rot and vultures. But the blasphemous man’s death called for a rejection of his body in UR Ananthamurthy’s novel Samskara. Author Saikat Majumdar My dream, too, made precious that which I didn’t have when my father passed away.
