Rage Runs Deep - Demetri Capetanopoulos - Bog

Bag om Rage Runs Deep

This full-color graphic novel asks the question: When does revolution become revenge? Reeling from the collateral brutality of imperialism, Prince Dakkar, an enlightened intellectual Indian revolutionary leader, is driven from insurgency to a lifetime of uncompromising vengeance as Captain Nemo. A familiar story, the undersea expression of Captain Nemo's vengeance has been told many times and spawned new, sometimes fanciful, chapters of what comes after Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea.But . . . Getting at how and why Prince Dakkar became Captain Nemo requires descending into a dark psychodrama that unfolds across the turbulent landscape of Southern Asia, caught in the rampant colonial expansion of the Victorian Age. Enter the world of Rage Runs Deep, a timeless allegory about the undesirable but all too predictable consequences of imperialism, that fuels the dark seduction of vengeance justified as revolution.
