British Culture of the Postwar: an Introduction to Literature and Society, 1945-1999
"'If I were to write a novel in Marathi, I would not be called an Indian writer in Marathi, but simply a Marathi novelist, the epithet Marathi referring only to the language...' Is there any reason why, when it comes to any fiction in English, there should be an obsession with the issue of its Indianness?" p. 24
"'In the lane behind my house, every night I walk past road gangs of emaciated laborers digging a trench to lay fiber-optic cables to speed up our digital revolution. In the bitter winter cold, they work by the light of a few candles.'" p. 51
