Existentialist assertions in Indian Society. Study of Mahasweta Devi’s Mother of 1084

      Аннотация: Mahasweta Devi wrote Hajar Churashir Maa in 1974. Sujata's son Broti was killed for advocating killing class enemies, State collaborators, and Party counter-revolutionaries. Sujata remembers Broti's birth anniversary. She defends Broti's revolutionary actions. She overcame obstacles. Her son is a "cancerous democracy growth." A mother relives her son's death during political unrest that nearly destroyed every home. Hajar Churashir Maa depicts the restless political adventure of the Bengali youth, which was ruthlessly cowed by the Congress government until the Communist Party displaced them and again cowed its opponents. Mother of 1084, written during the Naxalite agitation, led to the murder of young rebels across Bengal. This novel is about a mother's trauma after learning her son is dead and her struggle to understand his decisions.
