He not only recognizes old buildings that Tridib had merely mentioned to him as a child, but with the same eloquence questions missing ones, the ones bombed out in action and the like. The Shadow Lines That Still Divide Analysis; The Shadow Lines That Still Divide Analysis. It is foregrounded to draw the reader’s attention towards the fault of Partition, neither that of the language nor that of Tha’mma. The Shadow Lines is a “stunning novel, a rare work that balances formal ingenuity, heart, and mind” – New Republic --This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition. The novel has also been analysed by the critic Suvir Kaul in the essay “Separation Anxiety: The novel begins with the eight-year-old narrator talking of his experiences as a schoolboy living in the Gole-Park neighbourhood in Calcutta. Her uncle (father’s brother) is the only one languishing in that house because he is completely out of touch with reality and refuses to believe the fact that the country has split. According to Nivedita Bagchi there is ‘ a peculiar construction in the Bengali language which allows the speaker to say “aaschi” (coming) instead of “jachchhi” (going)’…which is ‘especially used as an equivalent to “good-bye”. He is more of a performer than historian in these spaces. She idealises these young men who indulge in clandestine extremism with the larger goal of Independence in mind. 1. However the narrator finds means to escape it through. While the narrator shuts his eyes to escape the ugly sight, Tridib drives on with a nonchalance that shocks May completely. He begins the book in 1939, 13 years before he was born. 835 Words 4 Pages. A few days later, the narrator experiences a harrowing bus ride home from school as the driver tries to protect the dozen boys from the angry mobs in the streets. The sisters Tha’mma and Mayadebi are thick with each other, however the former is perennially on her guard on the issue of accepting help from the latter. The Shadow Lines (1988) is a Sahitya Akademi Award -winning novel by Indian writer Amitav Ghosh. For the first time the sure shot, unruffled Tha’mma goes through pangs of some fundamentally disturbing introspection. He takes on the center stage in these public street corners where people pour over chai and talk quotidian concerns. It is at this time that he is able to link up the two seemingly unrelated events and the fact strikes him that it was indeed the same riot in Dhaka that had claimed its victim in Tridib. This claim is further confirmed by the fact that the book has two sub-sections: Going Away and Coming home. Probably because, the author says, these do not cohere well with constructs like a nation that the state has so painfully nurtured earlier: ‘the madness of a riot is a pathological inversion, but also therefore, a reminder of that indivisible sanity that binds people independently of their governments. The stories and memories belong to the narrator; his uncle Tridib; and his grandmother, Tha'mma. They thus become the fixities and entities with ‘semiotic signification’ that provide meaning to several characters, their concerns and their identities. These stories become more intelligible when the narrator joins them into meaningful wholes after collecting all the possible versions of the incident described from various sources. When Khalil arrives, he leads his guests into the house. While in London in the early 1980s, the unnamed narrator recounts a series of stories and memories to his cousin Ila and his uncle Robi. The night before the narrator leaves, he has dinner with May. (Page 4) This is an early indication of how judgmental and absolutist Tha’mma is. She asks him to drive back to the mangled animal after which follows her extraordinary show of endurance and fortitude with which she relieves the animal of its pain by assisting it to a peaceful death. Finally, Tridib walks in with the children and listens to the narrator tell Ila's story. At their party, the narrator gets very drunk and May offers to take him home and put him to bed. What the others in his college cannot even seem to remember owing to their location in places that are far from Calcutta, is ironically a mirror experience of people in another country (Khulna, Bangladesh, then in Pakistan), ‘the two cities face each other at a watchful equidistance across the border.’, What follows is the author’s meditation on the idea of distance as a physical reality and as a political and psychological construct. He studied in Delhi, Oxford and Alexandria and is the author of The Circle of Reason, The Shadow Lines, In An Antique Land , Dancing in Cambodia , The Calcutta Chromosome , The Glass Palace , The Hungry Tide, … When they're in the car, they turn a corner and come face to face with a mob. Infact these specific addresses have a power that emanates from their permanence. The friendship of the Datta- Chaudhary family and the Prices goes back to the Colonial times when their English grandfather, Tresawsen had come to Calcutta as an agent of a steel-manufacturing company and had later become a factory owner. The narrator is gifted an Atlas as a birthday gift and that becomes a symbol of sorts for the ‘transference of knowledge’ that takes place between the two. Tridib’s vision works, at the same time he has the historian’s itch to classify and know events completely rather than experience them spontaneously as Ila does. His suggestions of its existence are brushed aside by his cousin Ila whose opinion is supported by the club’s absence, however the external evidence fails to satisfy him and after much effort they find out from an old timer that the club had indeed existed at the exact spot that he had pointed out and that it had been targetted during a war and reduced to rubble. Later that year, Tridib's family returns to India. The Shadow Lines. Tha'mma was born in 1902 in Dhaka, British India. After seeing a lecture in Delhi, the narrator realizes that although he never connected the events as a child, the riot he experienced in Calcutta and the riot that killed Tridib in Dhaka was part of the same political uproar. A Short Analysis of Joseph Conrad’s The Shadow-Line A reading of a late work by Joseph Conrad Joseph Conrad’s 1916 novella The Shadow-Line is much more conventional, at least ostensibly or superficially, than some of his most celebrated earlier fiction, such as Nostromo (1904) or Under Western Eyes (1911), even though it was written later than both of those novels. This is part of the Lord’s Prayer but is missing the ending, “and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Her self worth goads her to abstain from becoming dependent on her affluent relations. SUMMARY Amitav Ghosh’s The Shadow Lines deals with political freedom in the modern world, nationalism and the shadow lines we people draw between us and nations. The novel situates the 1964 communal riots in Calcutta experienced by the narrator as a young school going boy centrally in the boy’s psyche as well as in his analysis of the difference of perception that pervades the recording of such incidents. This further becomes an instance of a personal space (and if these addresses can be seen as personal narratives) outdoing a public one. The Shadow Lines is the story of the family and friends of the nameless narrator who for all his anonymity comes across as if he is the person looking at you quietly from across the table by the time the story telling is over and silence descends. However soon the romance in the relationship is replaced by discord. In college, the narrator continues to both love Ila and find her frustrating, as she never understands why he is so insistent on remembering Tridib's stories or their own childhood antics. While reading retrospectively about his own experience of communal riots in Calcutta as a child, he stumbles upon other events of the fateful day, one of which is a description of a similar riot in Dhaka. Routine activity of furnishing her personal details while finishing the documentation for her visa forms raise fundamental doubts within her about her identity. The sane formulations of her life are threatened by some dull looking External Affairs Ministry forms. The narrator assaults May but feels horrible about it in the morning. Then there is the third generation Ila, the narrator’s second cousin through whom the author brings to fore the issues of diaspora and racism.
