    An anthology of the work of the most important and influential Indian writers of the last 50 years. This volume is published to coincide with the anniversary of India's independence.

    The Indian subcontinent has produced some of the world's greatest writers, and a body of literature unsurpassed in its sustained imagination, impassioned lyricism and sparkling tragi-comedy. Now Salman Rushdie and Elizabeth West have collected together the finest Indian writing of the last fifty years. Published to coincide with the anniversary of India's independence, it is an anthology of extraordinary range and vigour, as exciting and varied as the land that inspired it. Including works by: Mulk Raj Anand. Gita Mehta. Anjana Appachana. Ved Mehta. Vikram Chandra. Rohinton Mistry. Upamanyu Chatterjee. R. K. Narayan. Amit Chaudhuri. Jawaharlal Nehru. Nirad C. Chaudhuri.
