A Thousand Cranes for India: Reclaiming Plurality Amid Hatred (The India List) Book Information:

e is a legend that anyone who folds one thousand Paper cranes will have their wishes realized. But folding cranes, and the meditative, solemn care that it involves, has come to mean more than just an exercise in wish making. Origami cranes have become a symbol of renewal, atonement,and warning. Their symbolism may have emerged out of Japanese particular mythology and history, but they do not belong to any one nation. The crane is a migratory bird that crosses borders and makes its home with scant regard to the blood-soaked lines that humans have drawn on maps. This anthology uses origami cranes as a way for some of Indias best-known writers, poets, and artists to form a shared civic space for a conversation about the fault lines in India at a time of Darkness. The twenty-three pieces collected here encompass reportage, stories, poems, memoir, and polemicthe kind of complex and enriching diversity that India demands and deserves. The paper crane becomes a motif of connection, beauty, and reclamation in an otherwise degraded country, enabling those who fight with words to become the best Army they can be.
