Vikram Seth
vikram seth
The Kolkata born, Vikram Seth deserves to be next on the list. The man of many languages and wise businessman penned outstanding works like "The Golden Gate", "A Suitable Boy", "An Equal Music", and "Two Lives". The first book written by him was in verse form and records the lives of young professionals in San Francisco. "A Suitable Boy", 1441 paged novel pushed him into the lime light. The book brimmed with lives of the Indian migration, was based on post-independent India, and it received diverse views from the critics. "An Equal Music" in 1999 was predestined on the lives of classical musicians in Europe; it was a solemn verse to the musicians and their music that conveys to the bizarre world. The obstinate grip of Indian authors was established through his writings and he still persists to motivate young writers gazing to roll a new world.
