Holmes, J. H. (1950). Introduction. In M. K. Gandhi (Ed.), Gandhi’s Letters to a Disciple (pp. 3–5). Harper and Bros. In lines with Said’s ‘Orientalism’, Sen classifies Occident approaches for understanding the Orient, especially India, into three distinct categories - exoticist(not exorcist), magisterial and curatorial. Greater chunk is the romantic narrative of first category, whose major focus is on the wondrous and strange aspects of the country. The ‘magisterial’ approach assimilates a sense of superiority and guardian-hood to its narrative, and wants to view the country as ‘a great scene of British action’. The third category, Sen argues to be relatively free of preconceptions, as it doesn’t rely on the exhibit value (exoticist) nor is weighted down by ruler’s priorities. And immediate response to ‘exotic’ admiration is the tendency of Indian writers to exaggerate the non-material and arcane aspects (spiritual), often disregarding the more rationalistic and analytic elements (material), thus selectively alienating India from a very substantial part of its past.

Not actually a novel but, rather a collection of Indian short stories all set around the city of Mumbai, the tales in No Presents Pleasetake the ordinary, mundane lives of normal people — young couples, lonely bachelors, struggling workers, winners and losers, invisible people — and shine a quiet spotlight on them.

Sax (Eds.), Cultural Visions: Essays in the History of Culture (pp. 63–90). Rodopi. Three, the treatment of the topic is superficial. Even when it comes to subjective analyses, issues aren't delved into and obvious positions are stated with no original inductions or deductions. A few examples are repeated frequently. People have been quoted repeatedly for stating the same position, as if endorsements from historical figures confirm anything. Given that the average reader supports secularism and plurality, the book preaches to the choir without offering a finer understanding that can help in any incremental way. One Part Woman is a novel so penetrating and forceful that putting it down or looking away comes to feel like a daring and unsafe decision. Argument : Agreed, but I believe this book is intended to highlight the exceptions to provoke further research and analysis of Indian history for finding more such evidences. Another example is that of the Maratha Ruler, King Shivaji (which I am a bit disappointed that Dr. Sen doesnt take as a subject to prove his point) who enshrines the modern values of freedom, justice and religious tolerance.Khilnani, S.
