Sahitya Akademi Award Winning English Collections

This book is about Sahitya Award-winning English writings, which is obvious from the title of the volume itself. But, what is not evident from the title is the various interesting angles from which the bunch of scholarly writers judge the award-winning English works. The readers, I am sure, will think of taking up the works once again, and read them with an analytical mind, for which they would definitely owe, to a great extent, to these scholar-writers. Analysing The Guide by R. K. Narayan, Bhabani Bhattacharya’s Shadow from Ladakh, Shashi Deshpande’s That Long Silence. Amitav Ghosh’s The Shadow Lines or Girish Karnad’s Tale-Danda and many other notable works with different points of view is not an easy job. And, this book contains seventeen such valuable articles which would surely help a student, a teacher or a researcher of Indo-Anglian literature to know the works better. No doubt, apart from the people of this particular field, any other common reader is welcome to read this book and take a peep into Indian-English award-winning works, a bit seriously.
