Anotace knihy

The Length of Light reflects the predicament of§everyday choices in life. The enigmatic gap between§ordinary people and their dreams is dramatized in§scenes that reveal severed roots, patriarchal§intrusions, socio-economic impositions, inhuman§cultural values, and hostility. Yet the redeeming§qualities of each character give hope and faith as§they hold on to their insurmountable will to survive.§In their diverse themes and tenors, the narratives§demonstrate a critical examination of a world in§which most people, against their wishes, are chosen§by the paths they follow: Kaito, the protagonist in§Sirens puts his family in debt to achieve his§desperate desire to migrate to the United States. He§is, however, shocked to realize that America is far§from the place he imagines it to be. Soka, in the§story Idu, is on the other hand, haunted by a§cultural belief she dismisses: she encounters the§very mythical story she rebuffs, and in the process,§history becomes her story.
