Synopsis
Two men of very different personalities make a quarrelsome journey across the vast subcontinent of India in quest of very separate destinies. Along the way, young Rakesh and Vasant, the former Royal Engineers, experience a host of bizarre and memorable encounters; with the giant wood-constructed god Jagannath carving a swath of destruction, with the Pragmatic Monks who live in a carved-out mountain to perform their miracles of meditation, with demon cranes who reduce life to counting, with six-armed goondas, the destroyer Shiva and the legendary Baboon Warrior.From this cinematic dreamscape filled with animated machines, airships of silk and ancient legends brought to life, Jan Lars Jensen conjures up an amazing and innovative fantasy.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Jan Lars Jensen weaves a magical, mythical narrative with a modern sensibility, present-future technology, and a dark humor strongly reminiscent of Terry Gilliam's Brazil and Time Bandits. Two quarreling friends travel across India together, following their very different destinies. Along the way, young Rakesh and the Royal Engineer, Vasant, encounter the giant god of wood, Jagannath, who carves a swath of destruction; the Pragmatic Monks, who live in a carved-out mountain and perform miracles of meditation; demon cranes, who reduce life to counting; battles where the weapons are spices; and numerous other wonders. This cinematic Sinbad dreamscape, filled with animate machines, airships of silk, and legends brought to life, evokes an ancient time but also points a finger at our modern age. Jensen's prose fascinates, amuses, and haunts as he presents vivid scenes of India and in the process examines Hinduism, Buddhism, intolerance, and the awful power of faith.
