English, August: An Indian Story in 1988 and The Last Burden English, August and Jamun in The Last Burden English, August English, August deals with August as a member of the Indian Administrative Service, a reincarnation of the Indian Civil Service, a behemoth left behind by the British to govern the country. A job in the IAS is highly sought after in postcolonial India; August, while appearing lackadaisical and self-centered and seeming to be its most inappropriate member, draws attention to a system which has become totally outmoded and out of touch with the needs of the Indian masses. Overtly, the novel attempts to do an expose of the IAS with its corruption and the tension which exists between the IAS officers representing the federal government and the state governments resulting in the victimization of the common people in the administrative nightmare in modern India. Furthermore, there is a subtext of anger which is aimed not just at the IAS, but one which questions reality in India which is mediated by the English text or more particularly through Western eyes. For instance, watching Indian television, August makes references to

Extractions: Rambling at Fifty Upamanyu Chatterjee Ah, 50 years ... so it's time (to quote an unmentionable colleague) to take situation of the stock ... Freedom and Partition, the good with the bad, the wonderful with the traumatic, both in the same event, no wonder we are schizophrenic. Amidst one's daily clutter, one doesn't usually reflect on the splendour of being free because naturally one has to get on with the business of living. One has children who've to be driven to school because they've missed the school bus; one has to try and bathe and fill up enough buckets of water for the day before the municipal taps run dry at 8.00 a.m.; one's first meeting of the morning started 10 minutes ago and one is still 15 km away from it; one has to dress for a fancy dinner and one is both tense and depressed to discover that one's only decent suit looks much less deadly than it did last year; one could thus accumulate a dozen instances of the minutiae of one's life. In these circumstances, one usually doesn't stop dead in one's tracks, slap one's forehead and exclaim, "My word! We are free! We've been free for 50 years, but don't take it for granted! Rejoice! Things could be worse! Partition could recur! Because the enemy's now within! Rejoice that we haven't yet cracked up!"
The Last Burden (Upamanyu Chatterjee) - Book Review When his mother has a heart attack, Jamun returns to his family home, to be enmeshed again in the complex web of relations between him, his mother Urmila, http://dannyreviews.com/h/Last_Burden.html
Extractions: Subjects Titles Authors ... Latest A book review by Danny Yee When his mother has a heart attack, Jamun returns to his family home, to be enmeshed again in the complex web of relations between him, his mother Urmila, his father Shyamanand, and his brother Burfi. Jamun is far from omniscient, but he and Chatterjee between them carry out a mercilessly honest dissection, unconstrained by propriety or filial piety. Vulgarity isn't hidden and there's no reticence about the less savoury character traits or the more unpleasant events. The family members probe each other for weaknesses that can be exploited, fighting over every little issue, real or symbolic. The Last Burden is a saga of expectations not met, failures of communication, unresolved frustrations and other traumas. But the characters remain touchingly human and the family as a whole takes on an almost holy aspect through the glaring exposure of its failings. The most striking feature of The Last Burden is Chatterjee's prose. This has a broad lexical reach and an unusual style.
Jabberwock: Upamanyu Chatterjeeâs The latest instance is upamanyu chatterjees Weight Loss, which I started nearly a month ago and have only now brought myself to finish. http://jaiarjun.blogspot.com/2006/02/upamanyu-chatterjees-weight-loss.html

I believe reviews are essentially personal things and the best ones will tell you as much about the reviewer as about the thing being reviewed (never understood the âbe objectiveâ shtick dished out by editors with Buddha-like smiles). And usually Iâm quite comfortable writing what I feel about a book or film, irrespective of what others have said about it. But ever so often a difficult case comes along where I have to wonder whether it might be better to take a coolly academic approach; to tiptoe around my own (undoubtedly warped) ideas about a work and try instead to imagine how it might have affected most other readers/viewers. This usually happens when a book or film leaves a strong impression on me but I still canât really argue with the negative things others are saying about it.
