Angebote / Angebote:
With the publication of Salman Rushdie's Booker Prize winning novel, Midnight's Children in 1981, followed by the unprecedented popularity of his subsequent works, the cinematic adaptation of Michael Ondaatje's The English Patient, and other best-sellers, South Asian novelists writing in English have gained a tremendous following. This reference is a guide to their lives and writings. The volume includes alphabetically arranged entries on more than 50 novelists who claim South Asia as their birthplace, or who have written and continue to write about issues concerning that region. Each entry is written by an expert contributor and includes a biography, a discussion of major works and themes, a summary of the novelist's critical reception, and primary and secondary bibliographies.
