Reflections On Indian English Fiction

The book presents a collection of papers that are wide ranging not only in the choice of authors—two of the Big Trio, R.K. Narayan and Raja Rao on the one hand, and the recent ones like Upamanyu Chatterjee and Manju Kapur on the other, but also in the different angles from which these novelists have been discussed. It includes a much talked about author like Arundhati Roy as well as a remarkable but less discussed writer like Ruskin Bond. It consists of feminist study as well as semiotic study and postmodern reading.
