What others have to say about Upamanyu Chatterjee
  • "Some of Chatterjee's sentences, when he calms down a little, are very good: someone seen briskly and precisely as "desiccated skin and cannonball knees." More than this, at least Chatterjee's fictional world is also its own complete verbal world, rather than the usual contemporary verbal mixture of journalism-and-candy. (...) Chatterjee's first novel had a satiny language, rich but controlled. It was warm and funny, and running with potential; his second is less funny, wildly uneven, and dried out with effort." - James Wood, The Guardian (17/8/1993)

http://karanbajaj.com/recommended_reading.html
Reading Recommendations
Early readers of the website asked me for reading recommendations so here I list a few of my favorites. Certain classics - The Catcher in the Rye, The Great Gatsby, Lord of the Flies - endure of-course, but with a few notable exceptions, my top picks are closer to home; perhaps because books that touch a chord are usually ones that trigger memories of similar experiences.
English August by Upamanyu Chatterjee
Upamanyu Chatterjee’s delightful slacker novel with its wickedly funny portrayal of timeless themes- the angst of suddenly being thrust into adulthood, feeling hopelessly out of place in one’s surroundings, and being unable to shake off the uncomfortable feeling that “life just isn’t meant to be this”- easily rises to the top of my favorites. Agastya Sen, the novel’s cynical, lost protagonist is my favorite character in Indian literature, and you can’t help but like him despite (or perhaps because of) his spending all his time smoking marijuana, inventing new excuses to shirk his duties as an IAS officer, lying dementedly, sneering at everyone, and reflecting on the futility of everything. I also really dig the various philosophical nuggets from the Gita, Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations, and his own beliefs that the author has liberally sprinkled through the novel.
Upamanyu Chatterjee has written a few more novels after that which I religiously picked up. I admire his wry, caustic writing which seems to be quite reflective of his own self (e.g. the dedication in his third novel, The Last Burden reads: To my wife, Anne- while the going is good.) Wow, is that a dedication or a doomsday prophecy? However his last novel, Weight Loss is avoidable and so twisted that it is almost sad in a way. In English August you get the sense that the young Agastya Sen is teetering on the edge of a cliff, and you desperately hope for his redemption. If Upamanyu Chatterjee is anything like Agastya, it seems that he couldn’t help himself from falling off by the time Weight Loss was released almost twenty-five years later—in 2007, I think.

    SUMMARY Agastya Sen, known to friends by the English name August, is a child of the Indian elite. His friends go to Yale and Harvard. August himself has just landed a prize government job. The job takes him to Madna, "the hottest town in India," deep in the sticks. There he finds himself surrounded by incompetents and cranks, time wasters, bureaucrats, and crazies. What to do? Get stoned, shirk work, collapse in the heat, stare at the ceiling. Dealing with the locals turns out to be a lot easier for August than living with himself." English, August "is a comic masterpiece from contemporary India. Like "A Confederacy of Dunces" and "The Catcher in the Rye," it is both an inspired and hilarious satire and a timeless story of self-discovery. SUMMARY

        Posted on November 2, 2010 by Niranjana (Brown Paper) You probably read about the editor of  India Today plagiarising from a Slate article blog The total lack of surprise or shock about all this in the journalist community is the best indicator that Indian media is in crisis as far as integrity is concerned. Amongst other crimes such as those listed in the Press Council of India report which nobody in the media wants to talk about, is rampant plagiarism. Nobody in the media wants to talk about that either. It’s not as if ours is the only media in the world with big problems. But when ours is confronted with its own scandals, you can hear the clang of a fraternity closing ranks, followed by the weird sound of thousands of furious back-scratchings, followed by the thunderous silence of stones not being thrown in glass houses. Everyone is human, so screwups are going to happen. Nobody is infallible, nor is anyone expected to be infallible. There are genuine cases of faulty memory and communication gaps and plain sloppiness. Unequivocal apologies can and should be made. But we’re at the point where it has become so commonplace to plagiarise in small and big ways that to many journalists it’s no big deal, and that’s the point at which we’re in trouble. Getting caught is not embarrassing enough yet—the media still mostly chooses to tiptoe around the doo-doo on the carpet, trying to be polite to whoever put it there. When we become a profession that respects itself enough to hang plagiarists out to dry, we will be a profession we can be proud of.

    Book Summary of Last Burden
    A fascinating portrayal of life in an Indian middle-class family by the best-selling author of English, August
    Upamanyu Chatterjee s second novel brilliantly recreates life in an average Indian family at the end of the twentieth century. Jamun, the central character, is a young man, unmarried, adrift. He stays away from his family, which comprises his parents, Urmila and Shyamanand, his elder brother, Burfi, his sister-in-law, Joyce, his two nephews and the children s ayah.
    Jamun returns to the family when his mother is hospitalized. Once there, he decides to stay on until one of his ailing parent dies. He barely admits to himself that there is another, probably stronger, reason for his extended stay in the family home an old friend Kasturi, now married and pregnant, who has returned to the city (that she associates with Jamun) . . .
    Flitting back and forth in time and space, and writing in a language of unsurpassed richness and power, Upamanyu Chatterjee presents a funny, bitterly accurate and vivid portrait of the awesome burden of family ties.
