The Fictional World of Amit Chaudhuri. A Study of Themes

      Аннотация: Amit Chaudhuri has emerged as one of the most significant young novelist on the contemporary literary scene. He belongs to new generation of Indian writers in English. He is always open to new ideas and experiences, his novels reflect the same. His novels shed an intelligent warming light on Indian ethos. He chooses ordinariness of human life as his themes and employs his unique technique thus he creates extraordinary out of ordinary. He unlocks the precious treasure of Indian milieu and takes it to international platform. He is preoccupied with day-to-day life and the pathetic plight of middle class, pitted against the evil of urbanization and tendency to castigate the government for everything. Though Chaudhuri’s vision is circumscribed to Bengali life and culture, but it deals with universal human sensibility. Hence, a general reader and a rational thinker, both find his novels appealing.
