This Part 5 comes from VOLUME FOUR: CHAPTER FIVE
of my now lengthy work. It begins with INTERNATIONAL PIONEERING5: 1982-1988
Autobiography is a literary form by which I attempt to centre my life in a literary way, a way that embellishes and defines, describes and delineates, that has been centred at least since my late teens when this pioneering venture began. This literary effort is not the only form; it is also method and function. I bring together form, method and function in one process, one expression. I like to think there is an intellectual, a spiritual union, a conjoining, here. Poetry attempts to whittle this conjoining away, to scatter it, fragment it. Life is an immense series offragments. Perhaps my poetry, as well as some of my prose, especially my more confessional journals, even defaces my life from time to time by inscribing, describing some of my sins of omission and commission which have been many.
There are many forces that attempt to fracture whatever unity, oneness and centring there has been in my life. That is putting the function of poetry about as negatively as one can. On a more positive note, poetry does more for me than I can describe in a few words here. Since my autobiography is really poetic autobiography, I think I try to combine the positive aspects of both genres. My autobiography weaves continuities and digs holes to find air-pockets. It engages in ventilations, drillings, exposures, divergencies and plays with time and space in a multitude of ways.-Ron Price with thanks to "Poetry: The Autobiography of a Thirst," Poetry and Autobiography: Internet.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel.

8. Rhys's life was profoundly marked
by a sense of exile, loss, and
alienation-dominant themes in her
novels and short stories. Despite
critical acclaim at the end of her
life, Rhys died in 1979 still
doubting the merit of her work.

literary fame, commenting, "It has
come too late."

the age of 88, before completing her
autobiography, which she had begun
dictating only months earlier.
In 1979, the incomplete text was
published posthumously under the
title, Smile Please: An Unfinished
Autobiography.

“alone.We are alone in the most beautiful place in the world.”
