PREFACE

India is a treasure house of language and literature. Indian Writing in English is an expression of Indianism and Indian sensibility. The root of Indian Writing in English was laid during the period of colonization in India. Now, it has been blossomed into an evergreen tree with fragrant buds, flowers and juicy fruits. The fruits are being tasted, chewed and digested not only by the native people, but also by the readers all over the world. It spreads their branches throughout the world through poetry, drama, prose, fiction and criticism. The writers of the past and the writers in the modern era, through the modernized language present the past tradition and culture. Some of the contemporary writers engrave a place in the world literature by bringing laurels through their writings. The diversity in language, customs, practices and also Indian sensibility attracts the readers. This book explores the recent areas in Indian Writing in English.
