Imprint. Suniti Namjoshi recaptures the impact of growing up in India and moving to the West. This powerful meditation, part autobiography, part elegy, deconstructs the glamour given to wealth and power, and celebrates the quest for love. Author will be a guest at the Sydney Writer's Festival 2000.
This story of a native Indian poet living and writing in the West discusses class privilege and poverty, language and literacy, and the contradictions that make up the confusing patterns of her life.
