Kalicharan Patnayak, a ledgendary playwright, director, dancer, singer, lyricist, editor and children's literatteur of the twentieth century Odissa is a true Odia hero, literally and metaphorically. He personifies our cultural ambivalence, yearning for transcendence and yet hypnotised by our crassest myth and legend. The monograph focuses Kalicharan Patnayak's endeavours to configurate a cultural identity out of the hazy contours of political subversion and distortion, spanning for eight decades through the colonial and post colonial times.
