![]() ![]() It will be interesting, therefore, to consider how Haroun offers its own simplified version of Rushdie's recurrent themes. In this respect, Haroun may also be compared with Gulliver 's Travels, a fiction which is both available to a contextualized, ‘local’ decoding in terms of eighteenth-century political personalities and events but also floats free of this encumbrance on a sea of its own, a mythical, magical, and dehistoricized account of human behaviour that retains nevertheless an important moral dimension. Haroun is also a story about story itself, about the need and the capacity of human beings to communicate with each other, across time and across cultures – and despite whatever other obstacles may be put in their way. ![]() But obviously this reading, while legitimate (even inevitable), risks being reductive.

The details of the coded reading may easily be sketched out: the separation of the family, the attack on free speech (‘the greatest Power of all ’ ( HSS 119)) by Khattam-Shud, the embodiment of silence and negation the sinister power of Bezaban, the idol of black ice.

The findings of this research indicate that nonce formations were a prominent campaign tool before the elections took place. The data was analysed using a multi-modal approach and transitivity analysis based on Systemic Functional Grammar. Only words/phrases and images that were coined to campaign or communicate campaign ideals were selected. The nonce formations were purposively selected from WhatsApp platforms that supporters of the candidates were using to campaign for their candidates of choice or against the candidate they did not want to elect. Using a multi-modal approach, this study analysed nonce formations that were used as a campaign tool during the 2022 general elections in Kenya.

At one point he speaks of a world without time, elsewhere he says 'Time and space are real phenomena.' The difficulty I think Rovelli faces is that he uses the common physicist's approach of talking of a model as if it were reality. For example, at one point within a page of telling us of time's absence Rovelli writes of events that have duration and a 'when' - both meaningless terms without time. Time and again (pun intended) he tells us time doesn't exist, then makes use of it. It doesn't help either that the book is in translation so some scientific terms are mangled, or that Rovelli has a habit of self-contradiction. The bad news is that Carlo Rovelli does this in such a flowery and hand-waving fashion that, though the reader may get a brief feeling that they understand what he's writing about, any understanding rapidly disappears like the scent of a passing flower (the style is catching). ![]() ![]() The good news is that The Order of Time does what A Brief History of Time seemed to promise but didn't cover: it attempts to explore what time itself is. ![]() ![]() Chandor’s credits include the acclaimed Wall Street drama “Margin Call,” the harrowing Robert Redford drama “All Is Lost,” Oscar Issac’s “A Most Violent Year” and Netflix’s Ben Affleck shoot-em-up “Triple Frontier.
