Re-reading fiction again

 I am re- reading older books of fiction, so I can may be find ways to navigate life , without living in the presence of reality now . It gets me to just create a fantasy land that is more tolerable . I am now started re- reading ' the god of small things ; drawn to it after reading somewhere about the author.

My thought is, it gives me a pre-view sense for viewing the current realities as it gives me the awareness that similar things had been weathered in the past , by so many , and many came out un-scathed .Makes me wonder how my parents managed the news and changes in their time, how my grandparents managed it  in the uncertain tumultuous times that happened in  their lifetime . They all seemed to have navigated the uncertainties and did enough to impact the  political climate  in their own times , without crumbling, and seemingly without washing away their ethical beliefs... some times at a cost  as I recall where others questioned some of the losses due to sticking with honor and ethics . I have to say that those stories did have  an impact , hence I cannot forgo my principles either. 

so I choose fiction where fantasy may seem easier than this inability , the inability to do more for standing up to the tyrannical drama...  Reality that is a drama played out daily, occurring cyclically, blown in with the dawn each day...
