In London the reception hosted by the Indian Ambasdor here was attended by LN Mittal, Lord Swraj Paul, Lord Billimori, Lord Rana from Belfast and Vikram Seth. God Lord, it seemed I was not the only Lord there. But Indian community in UK is well integrated into the society. They can comfortably predict London weather. Also most of them understand what exactly are Scotland, Ireland and England.
“The Inheritance of Loss” published by Grove Press in the United States, is set in a remote corner of India against the backdrop of growing Nepalese unrest, and in the streets of Manhattan, where illegal immigrants try to make a living while eluding the authorities. It focuses on the enormous anxiety of being a foreigner. Novelist Kiran Desai won the Man Booker Prize for this. What exactly have you written my dear Kiran? And can an ordinary Sardaji Economist Prime Minister read and enjoy it?
Desi Lekhak ke liye asha ki Kiran!
