SERENADE OF LIFE FORCE IBD

Sinopse

Prof. (Dr) Sanghamitra Mishra is an acclaimed critic and writer who has earned her name in Odia language and literature. Here, I have attempted to translate her four short Odia plays into English as 'Golden Bridge', 'Our Geeti: Our Pride', 'Suchana: The Name of a Girl', and 'Last Quarter of Anticipation' respectively, and rendered the title Serenade of Life Force for this collection of plays for the readers to go through on the global platform. In all the plays, female characters are vibrant. They act as connecting links to bridge the gap perceived in human relationships in society. All the domestic plays are with characters chosen from real-life situations. The follies and foibles of human life are with ups and downs strewn nicely together but never thwarted permanently because of the life force already within every individual and consistently reinforces them to move upward. This life force galvanizes the characters taken into consideration in all the plays concerned herewith the female protagonists to fight against the social oddities and stereotypes sometimes silently, but often to socialize, negotiate, and poise with society convincingly. The dramatist has played a masterstroke in bringing these characters to the limelight and proving that their active participation in families and societies practically reduces the tension erupting anywhere.
