That soil contained all time, past and future. . . . It was where her deepest self lived, and the deepest selves of her sisters and brothers and all those who shared that time with her. Clear Light of Day Click to go to: Biography - Criticism Selected Bibliography Related Links BIOGRAPHY - CRITICISM Born to a German mother and an Indian father on June 24, 1937, Anita Desai spent much of her life in New Delhi. Growing up she spoke German at home and Hindi to friends and neighbors. She first learned English when she went to school. It was the language in which she first learned to read and write, and so it became her literary language. When asked why English remains her literary language, she said, "I think it had a tremendous effect that the first thing you saw written and the first thing you ever read was English. It seemed to me the language of books. I just went on writing it because I always wanted to belong to this world of books" ( CLC Desai received a BA in English Literature and graduated with honors from the University of Delhi. She started publishing her work shortly after her marriage to Ashrin Desai on December 13, 1958.

Houghton/Mariner, paper, $12 (0-618-04213-X). This scintillating collection of jewel-like short stories follows the triumph of Desai's last novel, Fasting, Feasting [BKL D 15 99]. As before, Desai, an impeccable craftsman with a keen wit and a profound sense of place, unerringly exposes the many ironies of daily life. In each tale, her characters are enmeshed in and shaped by their immediate surroundings, be it a family compound in Mexico, a precarious and charming rooftop apartment in New Delhi, or a Massachusetts suburb. Each setting is gorgeously rendered, and each character struggles against his or her circumstances like flies in a spider's web. Desai specializes in long-term marriages, unbalanced friendships, and brilliant variations on the theme of the stranger as a catalyst for change. In the title story, a New Delhi bureaucrat's wife and colleagues look on in dismay as he gives himself over to his love for a devilish dog he calls Diamond. In "Royalty," an old friend easily dominates his friends' lives, and in "The Artist's Life," a young girl discovers that art does not provide protection from hate. Donna Seaman (Booklist/May 15, 2000)
