Ever since Salman Rushdie published his
epoch making Midnight s Childmt, which was
lapped up by his western reviewers and
admirers as a kind of metafictional
historiography of the Indian sub-continent
validating even its several moral/ideological
effronteries to Indian people, things have
never been the same for an Indian
in English. Under the explicit guise of
Natívising
technique, Rushdie s mode of narration was
hailed as parallel to that of the Panchtantra .
The present book encompasses how Rushdie
was subtly representing the sub-continental
reality through an angular and arcane
narrativity which obviously derives from
western masters and
why he cared a fig for the moral, religious
traditions of the represented communities of
India and Pakistan, as he only slanders the
social cultural realities of the Indian sub¬
continent.
The Indian intellectuals have shown its
almost parasitic dependence on the western
critical canon by accepting or rejecting the
works of different writers. Even, in the post-
colonial situation the Indian critics are eager
to join the post-modernist bandwagon.
Rushdie s works are self-reflexive in a
sense, as they reflect the culture of
fragmentary sensations, eclectic nostalgia and
promiscuous superficiality in which the
traditionally valued qualities of depth,
meaning, originality and authenticity are
evacuated or dissolved amidst the swirl of
empty signals. The book probes the writer s
self conscious details wrapped up in
postmodemistic techniques like metafiction,
fabulation, intertextuality,
self-reflexivity and magical realism, which are
provocative enough for the reader as it
disturbs the set social-political cultural mode.
