Answer:
Two of the most fascinating and intensely moving Indo-Anglian novels of a previous generation are R K Narayan’s “The English Teacher” (first published in 1946) and Arun Joshi’s “The Strange Case of Billy Biswas” (1971). Both Narayan and Biswas have passed away and both won the Sahitya Akademi Award for their novels. But that is one of the few things they have in common.
With Bangalore book-shops not stocking new titles for the last few months of lock-down, I have been re-reading the books at home, especially fiction, to take my mind off the contemporary corona reality. Nothing could be as diametrically different as Narayan’s protagonist Krishna and Joshi’s Biswas.
Krishna remains committed to his wife even after she has succumbed to typhoid. Billy Biswas is a US-educated anthropologist who disappears into India’s tribal heartland, leaving behind a family which is convinced that he has been killed by a tiger during an expedition to interior Chhattisgarh.
Joshi’s book strikes a chord, especially if you have lived for a short while in the tribal heartland. There is a lyrical quality about the novel, right from the beginning, “There is a song among the bhils (tribals) of the Satpura Hills that goes somewhat like this, `I came a thousand miles to see your face, O mountain. A thousand miles did I come to see your face’.
