A Critique on New-Age Indian Writers: Chetan Bhagat, Durjoy Datta, Ravinder Singh, Preeti Shenoy and Sudeep Nagarkar

by Ashish Gupta

Overview

Literature is the mirror of society. We have a great tradition of literature since very ancient times. The English language entered India with the onset of European colonialists, especially the British. India has significantly contributed to the overall world literature. This contribution of India has been chiefly through Indian writing in English, with novelists being in the forefront in this respect. A number of novelists on the contemporary scene have given expression to their creative urge in no other language than English and have brought credit to Indian English fiction as a distinctive force in world fiction. In the present book, we have made an attempt to present a clear picture of Indian ethos, identity, modernity, and changing trends at the global level as portrayed in the novels of new generation writers.
