WHICH IS AT WAR WITH REALITY... According to Dr. Roghayeh Farsi, from Neyshabur University, Iran, research and biographer of Dr. J.S. ANAND, " A collection of short stories, "Confessions of a Corpse," draws on different human bonds. depicting their degeneration into absurdity and nothingness imbued by colonial codes of civilization. Parent-child, wife-husband, private and public relations are all shown to have fallen under the spell of modern consumerism and materialism. Anand also targets the world of politics and presents how freedom-oriented idealism and nationalism are put on sale. Loneliness, mental, moral and spiritual disintegration are the legacies of modernity bequeathed by the colonial masters to the Indian nation. Anand's biting tone in its cold and objective treatment of the protagonists' plight challenges the status quo and the present value system. Mostly the speakers or the main characters in each story suffer from a kind of neurosis, which is not only psychological, but also moral and political. Different dimensions of man's life are scrutinized by the writer's critical gaze such as education, family, politics, media, even the world of the dead. His protagonists are social outcasts who have been victimized by the marketizing urge of the time. The critical tone of this collection reminds one of the short stories written by the South African Nobel Laureate, Nadine Gordimer, who likewise concerns herself with the colonial legacies having stricken the so-called modernized and civilized postcolonial nation-States.
