(Mariner Books, 228 pgs., $13.00
In Fasting, Feasting , Anita Desai takes on a task that many Indian and expatriate authors have deemed Herculean in nature, a task that involves delving into the inner sanctum of an orthodox Indian family in India. Many who have attempted this challenge failed and came out looking ignorant and insensitive of certain aspects of the culture. Few have succeeded, and among them is Anita Desai. The reader is faced with several poignant issues played upon in a middle-class family attempting to deal with modernization, but they ultimately that realize life is meant to be lived in their society. A society with a veritable amount of prejudices weaved into its complex tapestry of customs and beliefs. The story in itself is told from the perspective of the protagonist, Uma, who starts out as a wide-eyed child at a convent who has an enthusiasm for education and an awe of the enigmatic nuns who seem to glide through the school grounds. Unlike her younger sister Aruna, our protagonist does not have the privilege of having "books marked healthily in green and blue for success and approval." Instead, with the birth of her brother Arun, Uma takes on the role of nanny. Here, one encounters the distinct preference her parents have for the male child - a practice that was not uncommon at the time. The teenage Uma questions this sexism when she points out that an ayah had looked after both Aruna and herself as children. Why wasn't the ayah's care sufficient for a male child?

85. Feminista! V3n7 - Anita Desai's Fasting, Feasting
References. desai, anita. Fasting, feasting. London Chatto and Windus, 1999. Ruthven, KK Feminist literary studies an introduction.
http://www.feminista.com/archives/v3n7/chandra.html
According to K.K.Ruthven, the central hypothesis of feminist literary criticism is that "gender is a crucial determinant in the production, circulation and consumption of literary discourse"(Feminist literary studies: 1991,9). But within this school two schools have emerged - those who analyze writings by male authors to see how women characters are portrayed and those who analyze women writers themselves (sometimes called the gynocritics). Elaine Showalter lucidly defines this term as a concern with "women as writers . . . the history, styles, themes, genres, and structures of writing by women; the psychodynamics of female creativity; the trajectory of the individual or collective female career; and the evolution and laws of a female literary tradition"('Feminist criticism in the wilderness' Critical inquiry: 1981,184-185). Anita Desai, the author of the upcoming novel Fasting, Feasting (now available in the UK) is an Indian, writing in English, living in the U.S. I wondered, what kind of style or theme or structure does this kind of background produce? How does this affect her creativity? What literary tradition does this writer fall back on? Or does she find her own? Fasting, Feasting

Det farverige Indien
”Faktisk er der, når man går ud i verden, kun én vigtig historie at fortælle: om ungdom, om tab og om længsel efter forløsning.” Det skriver den indisk-canadiske forfatter Rohinton Mistry i sin nye roman ”Et familieanliggende”. Gennem alment menneskelige historier drages vi ind i Indiens atmosfære af hede, farver, krydderier, korruption og længsel. Det har været en oplevelse for os at dykke ned i det enorme lands fascinerende verden, og i denne liste er der inspiration til mange timers god læsning. Listen er opdateret d. 25 maj 2004.
