Yet they are, nonetheless, remarkable for their quiet heroism, their grace under pressure and the manner in which they continue to cleave to the old values: honesty, fidelity, and a deep-rooted faith in God, family and neighbour. They do have problems, of course — sudden loss of a beloved parent, unfulfilled dreams, natural calamities, ghostly visitations, a respected teacher gone crooked, strangers who make a nuisance of themselves in a town marooned in time — but these are solved with a minimum of fuss and tremendous dignity. Taken together, these stories are a magnificent evocation of real India by one of the country’s foremost writers. Sharing Widget |
