Back 2 Square 1
“Back To Square One” explores the fundamental differences between human personalities. Comparing attitudes of existing vs. surviving while referencing the classic game of “Snakes and Ladders.”
“All games have morals; as no other activity can hope to do, the eternal truth that for every ladder you hope to climb, a snake is waiting just around the corner, and for every snake a ladder will compensate. But it's more than that; no mere carrot-and-stick affair; because implicit in the game is unchanging twoness of things, the duality of up against down, good against evil; the solid rationality of ladders balances the occult sinuosities of the serpent; in the opposition of staircase and cobra we can see, metaphorically, all conceivable oppositions, Alpha against Omega, father against mother.”
— Salman Rushdie
