paperback. Condizione: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. Middlesex. 1988. Penguin Books. Reprinted Paperback Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 0140103422. 183 pages. paperback. Cover design by Amiya Bhattacharya. Cover illustration by Subrata Gangopadhyay. keywords: Asia India Literature World Literature. DESCRIPTION - Fowl-Filche…r, born when the Raj still existed, is destined to have the most extraordinary adventures almost from the day of his birth. Easily led, fond of good living, prone to excess, Fowl-Filcher, the son of a hunter, progresses from dirty village dog-catcher to hunting guide, truck driver's assistant, drug-runner and, finally, politician's aide. Along the way he gets mixed up with tigers, maharajas, crooks, mad dogs, nymphomaniacs and power-hungry politicians. In this tremendously evocative novel that sets out by being wonderfully comic and then turns increasingly sombre (as Fowl-Filcher becomes enmeshed in politics and crime), Ranga Rao gives us a superbly drawn picture of the changes that have taken place in India since the Raj. 'A tale of modern India, after the manner of. Günter Grass and Salman Rushdie (with) comic exaggeration and a touch of fantasy throughout:' K. R. Srinivasa lyengar, author of Indian Writing in English. inventory #48106.
