Contributors. From the Prologue: "The present book contains papers on different aspects of SAARC Writing in English. They are arranged country-wise in the alphabetical order. The first two papers on Bangladesh introduce the national poet Kazi Nazrul Islam and examine reflection of communalism in the writings of Bangladesh. Bhutanese Lo-Zey and a novel The Circle of Karma are the subject matter of Bhutanese section. There are two papers on India, one analysing contemporary trends in Indian fiction and another expatiating upon violence, identity and narrative as tools of eventual and cathartic communal harmony. There is a survey of Maldivian poetry and a note on the poetry of Nepal. Pakistan figures prominently as the book has three papers analysing three novels and the fourth on partition fiction. The book has analysed two novels of Sri Lanka and a Sri Lankan novelist himself has examined the image of India in Sri Lankan fiction. Besides these, there are three thematic papers on the cultural aspects of SAARC.". Seller Inventory # 55537a
