Contemporary Indian writing in English is such a vast and variegated sphere today that no single anthology could claim to be representative of, or doing justice to the subject. Still, it is a modest attempt to evaluate the contemporary Indian writing in English.

The present anthology tries to give a quick glimpse of the views and ideas of Vikram Seth, Anuradha Marwah, Arun Joshi, Aravind Adiga, Chetan Bhagat, Kiran Desai, A.K. Ramanujan, Kamala Das, Mahesh Dattani, Jhumpa Lahiri, Arundhati Roy, V.S. Naipaul, Sharan Kumar, and Shobha De.

With the critical in sights and information provided by the various authors in this rich collection of articles, the volume will be useful for students and scholars.
