The stories in LIVES & SPACES range from twisted emotions to tenderness; from greed to brutality; from ascendency to failure; from loneliness to death. The broad range of circumstances provide the scope of the stories. Each story encapsulates the circumstances that define and change human behaviour and are told in different time-lines and platforms.

Produktbeschreibung
The stories in LIVES & SPACES range from twisted emotions to tenderness; from greed to brutality; from ascendency to failure; from loneliness to death. The broad range of circumstances provide the scope of the stories. Each story encapsulates the circumstances that define and change human behaviour and are told in different time-lines and platforms. Stories like Silent Energy, Planted Trees, The Final Shot and A Desired End capture a fragment of the turbulent times in Apartheid South Africa. Each story is told with the raw venture of human action and interaction and fictionalized as Man's Inhumanity to Man. The human element of boredom leads to an unexpected death while loneliness and isolation leads to the murder of an old man. The age-old triangle of money, sex and murder revolves like an old windmill and money and murder are ubiquitous, sex has a higher procreative role. The stories are an eclectic collection of situations, responses and consequences. The portrayals of the characters are confident and uncompromising but the outcomes touch the sadness of life and this results in LIVES & SPACES. The Target Audience includes Adults & Seniors who enjoy fictional short stories that connect to real-life emotions and experiences and have an inspiring content.

Autorenporträt
Subhas completed his under-graduate degree in South Africa and a Licentiate Diploma in Speech Therapy through Trinity College, London. He was best-known for the productions of Black on White I & II - satirizing the socio-political-economic conditions of the South African apartheid system. He was in the final process of editing Fatima Meer's book, A Portrait of South African Indians, and had completed writing the first half of A Pageant on the Life of Mahatma Gandhi with Alan Paton when he was forced to leave in 1969. He was informed that he was on the list of the Bureau Of State Security (BOSS) and with the assistance of family and friends, he left South Africa with a ticket to Toronto, Canada. Leaving South Africa was harrowing but arriving in London, England, was even more disturbing. He had no travel visa and was threatened with deportation, but after much questioning he was given a visitor's visa for 30-days. He landed in Toronto where the reception was less forceful than in London. Once again he was given a 30-day visitor's visa in Canada. Destiny guided him to Regina where he was welcomed as a landed immigrant. He had a thin margin of 14-days to find a new country. Subhas completed a Master's Degree in Speech-Language Pathology and continues to work in that capacity in Saskatchewan, Canada. He designed and developed the Pictogram Symbols Program, a visual communication strategy which is used internationally and has created many educational and community-based items using the symbols. He has published the IMAGINATION DRIFT Trilogy; On a Dusty Road - The Life and Death of a Young Man; and two books of poetry. Subhas has had an interesting life and is in the process of documenting it in a book - A Life of Chances.
