Vikram Seth is one of the most well-known and successful names in the Indian English writing today. Internationally renowned for his artistic skill of blending the poet’s sensitivity with the narrator’s comprehension of the elements of plot, structure, and character, Seth has been able to span geographical and national barriers and played a major role in bringing the Indian English writing onto the stage of world literature.
The present book Vikram Seth’s Art—An Appraisal is the first full-length study of Vikram Seth’s entire literary output. It introduces the readers to Vikram Seth’s life and background and evaluates his writings, his thematic concerns, his diversification into different genres and his contribution to the present-day literary scene. Seth’s work merits detailed study and this book presents a comprehensive analysis of the different aspects of his writing.
It is hoped that the book would be of great interest to the readers who are fond of English novels and poems. In addition, it will prove useful to the students of English literature.
