Mythology, contemporary times, and history inter-woven, it is a long, but horrifying poem on the world we live in, of the abuses we tolerate and perpetrate on each other. Richly allusive to important events in Indian history, it forces us to take a peek into our conscience, and opens our eyes to the psychological squalor around us.
