Abstract

The fish seller’s cry echoes throughout the world. It cuts across man-made barriers of language, region, religion and country. It is a cry of livelihood and sustenance, a cry of the marginalized as they are ousted out of existence by the hands that seize power. The woes of the fishing community have been the subject of many a creative work throughout history, all over the world—in literature, films and theatre, in various forms and genres.
