Abstract

Abstract The Indian‐born, American‐based writer, Vikram Chandra has published two novels, Red Earth , Pouring Rain (1995) and Sacred Games (2006), and a collection of short stories, Love and Longing in Bombay (1997). He is known for his interest in narrative structure, and his works often feature embedded narratives, parallel narratives, multiple narrators, and the clever manipulation of the narrative conventions of various genres, including detective fiction, fantasy, and oral traditions. In his latest works, Chandra has also been one of the foremost chroniclers of the impact of “new,” market‐liberalized India on its urban landscapes, especially Bombay.
