Reviews
It is an illuminating study on the concept of evil and its representations in literature, political theory and social and cultural movements...the book is an excellent exposition of myths, narratives and discourses drawn from tribal experiences of the region. It also examines the possibility of overcoming the forms of evil in correlation with both the 'local' and 'global' situations of war, terror and redemption.
