[ilds] An Indian View of an Indian View: Durrell’s India

[Sumantra Nag]

http://ebc.revues.org/2477

Gulshan Taneja's paper appears to be a significant, wide ranging inquiry
into Lawrence Durrell's connection with India and the continuing if latent
influence of India on his spiritual perspective of the world. People
familiar with the work of Ian MacNiven and others mentioned in the paper,
might of course be familiar with the material in this paper, which might
also be included in existing collections of the literature on Durrell.

There are some enlightening revelations, such as Durrell's wish to get
Justine translated into Bengali by a prominent Bengali writer. I have often
felt that in the AQ at least, Durrell writes with the colour and intensity
I would associate with a Bengali writer!
