This book depicts the struggles of the oppressed even when they are liberated, for regardless of what they do, they ironically become the very thing they ran away from or paradoxically flourish from the remnants of a past detested to make an identity worth living for. Collage of Dualism attempts to tackle this ubiquitous issue existing in a society where foreign and local cultures collide and pre-existing notions about one another confuses the two about their roles as who they are and the parts they should be playing because where cultures and rights are concerned even religion cannot define the role of an individual in and out of a society.
