Description

Akela Lekhan Coot, the looney lonesome writer, longs for some quiet. He is convinced that the din in the lane he lives in is fettering his imagination. So he breaks away from the incessant cacophony that surrounds him. Will the silence and the solitude bring to him the ideas and words that elude him? Will Akela Lekhan Coot’s story find its soul? With Ruchi Shah’s incredibly detailed, immersive and striking artwork and Richa Jha’s lyrical prose with its moments of subtle humour, lightness of touch and quiet contemplation, Akela invites readers to reflect on the limitations of their self-constructed ivory towers. And it explores the idea of whether art can be created in isolation or whether it needs community life to birth it. For, we make people. And people make us. The various themes and sub-themes that the title touches upon: Isolation, escapism, community-living, creative-blocks, creative-enablers, self-discovery, transcendence.
