Lines that cut to the very gut.Gogu Shyamalas stories dissolve the borders of realism, allegory and political fable.Whether she is describing the setting sun, or the way people are gathered at a village council like thickly strewn grain on the threshing floor, or a young woman astride her favorite buffalo, Shyamala walks us through a world that is at once particular and universal.
