The Voyage of the Dream Maker
Most people wonder if Tambolia exists. It might be better to think - given all the time the universe has had to establish something like a Galactic Library, why wouldn’t it exist? Of course, access is the key and the most challenging part. The Galactic Library has two initial conditions: one is the Mark of Emptiness; the other is Self-Secret. Once you understand these conditions, you can enter this library. Misha and his grandson, Shilo, figure out how to get to Tambolia, a Galactic Library, by asking the question, where do people go when they figure it out? The solution is Tambolia. The problem they discover is: why is the patriarchal model, which we are suffering from, so invested with the ignorance of their own ignorance?
Post-colonial Chinese Literatures In Singapore And Malaysia
This is the first book to present in English a history of post-colonial and diasporic Chinese literatures in Singapore and Malaysia. The 12 essays collected in it provide an in-depth study of the emergence of the new Chinese literatures by looking at the origins, the themes, the major authors and their works, and how the creativity is closely connected with the experience of immigration and colonialization and the challenge of the post-colonial world. In examining a wide range of post-colonial texts and their relation to the cultures of diasporic Chinese and post-colonial society, the author shows that each of the new literatures has its own traditions which reflect local social, political and cultural history. The essays also show that the literature of Singapore or Malaysia has a tradition of its own, and writers of world class. Besides the Chinese literary tradition, a native literary tradition has been created successfully.
