The present book offers verdant insights into some of the major novels of the postcolonial era. Most of the novels analysed in this volume focus on the protagonist’s quest for identity through an awareness of the self. They deal with man’s quest for his identity on the sociological as well as on the sociological as well as on the philosophical plane. Among the novelists discussed are: Anita Desai, Bharati Mukherjee, Arun Joshi, Salman Rushdie, R.K. Narayan, Raja Rao and Amitav Ghosh. The book, it is hoped, would be of immense value to the teaching and learning community as well as the research scholars in the area of Indian English writing.
