A Talent for the Particular: Critical Essays on R. K. Narayan is a book of scholarly chapters written by university professors who teach and research in India and the United States. This collection of essays was compiled by the two co-editors, Raymond-Jean Frontain, Professor of English at the University of Central Arkansas (USA) and author of four books and numerous journal articles, and Basudeb Chakraborti, Professor of English at Kalyani University (India). Raymond-Jean Frontain wrote the Introduction, and Basudeb Chakraborti concluded the book with a comprehensive Bibliography. Organized chronologically, the book provides excellent in-depth discussions of major novels written by India's foremost twentieth-century realist novelist. The co-editors have carefully selected well-researched essays clearly demonstrating an original argument that sheds new light on R. K. Narayan's narrative artistry. Not only are the textual analyses incisively presented to demonstrate critical perspectives on Narayan's fictional, autobiographical, and non-fiction works. The book gives readers, specialists and generalists, students and teachers, a coherent overview of landmark historical events and outstanding cultural features that distinguish India as a nation, from beginnings in Indus Valley civilization to standing as a leader at the cutting-edge of contemporary global development.
