Outsiders and Insiders
Outsiders and Insiders is a collection of essays and reviews in exceptionally simple and lucid style about post-modern Indian English literature. It is a mine of critical insights into the work of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala that has gone unnoticed in India and other prominent Indian English writers as E.M.Forster, Salman Rushdie, Shashi Tharoor, Ananth Murthi, Arundhati Roy and other Indian English writers. The reviews which appeared in World Literature Today, Times of India, Quest, Youth Times and other prestigious journals and papers present a panoramic view of the emerging Indian English literature. Short and pithy, they are suffused with sharp critical comments. Bypassing such pot holes as post-colonialism, post-structuralism, post-modernism the book takes you straight to the heart of the literary work under discussion and makes you understand it's worth, its intricacies, its beauty and its achievements. In a way, it marks a new beginning in literary criticism.
