NEW BOOK


My new book , CREATIVITY AND CONFLICT IN THE PLAYS OF SAM SHEPARD is out. The book is published by Authors Press, New Delhi. It addresses the issues of crisis of creativity and the creative artists in the postmodern milieu where art and artists are controlled by the sites of power like that of corporates, media houses, record companies, cultural operators and other market forces.
The Book takes up an exclusive set of plays by Sam Shepard which are known as the "Rock Plays" where the protagonists are artists or associated with the processes of creativity like that of Rock singers, song writers, Jazz musicians, movie actors, screenplay writers, dreamers and film producers.
Please read and post your comments. Also help me promote the book by recommending this for its purchase in the library of your institution.
