Trapped by Language: On Amitav Ghosh's In an Antique Land by Brian Kiteley Email me: bkiteley@du.edu If the brain, as We believe, is shaped by thoughts and not the other way around, then our own is composed of one nacreous coil, our thoughts sweeping upward under the influence of a lucent tide, the whole protected by a layering of scales. —Rikki Ducornet, The Word "Desire" Amitav Ghosh, a Hindu Indian raised in what was then largely Muslim Eastern Pakistan, born in Calcutta, educated at Oxford, sent for his anthropological field work to Muslim rural Egypt, and now a New Yorker who writes novels, is the ideal figure to usher in a new way of investigating the world. Travel writing was, in European hands, always the second line of imperialism. European travelers (as opposed, say, to Moslem travelers earlier) sent messages home of the superiority of home. Early travelers were delighted and amazed. Some wrote fantasies, in the style of Kinglake’s Eothen . Many sought out the ever-receding untouched wilderness or culture. Twentieth century Western travel writing has generally told of short-term visits to places of strangeness, worlds new to Western eyes. Jonathan Raban’s enjoyable Arabia: A Journey Through the Labyrinth is as much about not getting a visa to Saudi Arabia as it is about the countries around the Arabian peninsula he did visit, and the trip he writes of in the book takes about three weeks. Amitav Ghosh’s travel covers long periods of time, both in lived history and in human history. He is not a consumer of landscapes but someone who inhabits a place. His first contact with Egypt was as a quiet young professional academic. His later contacts were to re-establish relationships, to revive again what he’d seen and known.

86. IndiaStar Review Of Books: Amitav Ghosh: Dancing In Cambodia, At Large In Burma: by amitav ghosh (New Delhi Ravi Dayal, 1998 114 pages). We have now come to expect each new amitav ghosh book to be different from what has appeared before. http://www.indiastar.com/mukherjee1.html

IndiaStar Review of Books Dancing in Cambodia, At Large in Burma by Amitav Ghosh New Delhi: Ravi Dayal, 1998 114 pages) Reviewed by Meenakshi Mukherjee [Editor's note: "Prof. Meenakshi Mukherjee is India's leading literary critic." c.j.s. wallia] By a curious coincidence the publication of this book and the death of Pol Pot happened around the same time. The report of the death jogged public memory, bringing back images of brutal extermination of a quarter of Cambodia's population when the Khmer Rouge was in power between 1975 and early 1979. Even in India, where normally east Asian countries are peripheral in the national consciousness, this death made front-page news. The irony inherent in the fact that barely twenty persons attended the funeral of the man who had once masterminded the most systematic liquidation of the entire middle class of a country, was duly noted. But newspapers deal with facts and statistics. Amitav Ghosh, with a novelist's grasp of the personal lives of individuals, writes a moving human account, weaving together stories of actual survivors in Cambodia who coped with their rupture with the past and rebuilt their ordinary lives "like rag-pickers, piecing their families, their roofs ... together from the little that was left.'
