Produktbeschreibung

IMAGINATION DRIFT: THE CHALLENGE FOR FREEDOM is the second part of a trilogy. The satiric story continues with Zalador, in his quest to secure a place on the Supreme Council, must fulfil the requirements of a wish. The acceptance as a member of the Council means that the lion is given cosmic freedom; a release from the limits of his stay as an entity on the dry and dusty plains of his former Kingdom. In the first part of the trilogy, IMAGINATION DRIFT: A PRINCE FOR THREE DAYS Zalador's attempt ends in the death of his wish-partner, Malcolm; but through an appeal he is given a second chance to complete the requirements to enter the Supreme Council. While Zalador has to select a new wish partner; he is given the additional task of assisting a young lion, the Major, in finding a wish-partner to achieve the requirements of the wish. The Major, a lion from the Urban Display Arena (the zoo), is arrogant and constantly reminds Zalador of his contacts on the Supreme Council; that he is sure to be selected; that he is chosen one. To Zalador dismay he has no contacts on the Supreme Council. The difficulty is that there are two lions competing for a single position on Council and the benefits from the galactic freedom. Both are aspiring to achieve a release from the earth-bound gravity and this creates the challenge. Zalador is suspicious of the Major's intentions but is in the compromised position of assisting his competitor. This results in each picking on the weakness of the other to demoralize the competitor out of contention. The journey takes Zalador and the Major with the wish Partners, Princess and Sta, in and out of Paradise and the visit to a new Homeland. IMAGINATION DRIFT: A CHALLENGE FOR FREEDOM expresses human- people interactions and behaviors through animal perspectives.

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.
