A Matter of Time By Shashi Deshpande. Feminist Press at the CUNY, 1999. Reviewed by Sudha S. Balagopal I first read a A Matter of Time a few years ago, when it was published in India. The book made a deep impression on me, with its sensitive story of rebuilding and hope. After its more recent release in the US, I read it again, enjoying it even more.Very few books can lay claim to that fact for me. In A Matter of Time, a father, named Gopal, with three almost-grown girls, decides he has had enough of marriage and its binding ties, and walks out on his family. In a culture where marriage, to many, is the be-all and end-all of existence, where responsibilities outweigh desires, this expression to be free of all bondage in itself is strange and different to say the least (unless of course, it is for spiritual reasons). Sumi, Gopal’s wife, and his three daughters, seek shelter with her parents. Coincidentally, Sumi's parents themselves have a relationship that is more than strained. They are husband and wife in name only, inhabiting the same house with virtually no communication between the two of them. The three girls, Aru, Charu and Seema are bewildered and adrift. They all want normalcy. But what is normalcy once a father has walked out on his family? Sumi, the mother, is extraordinarily collected, to the point of indifference. How they learn to cope with this dislocation is the story that Deshpande spins for her readers. Ofcourse this is not the only story-it is also the story of all the families that are intimately linked to Sumi's.

48. Reading Across The Curriculum: Using The Fiction Of The Indian Subcontinent In S deshpande, shashi. The Dark Holds No Terrors (India Penguin, 1990) A successfulwoman doctor flees her abusive husband. (Karnakata). deshpande, shashi. http://www.aasianst.org/EAA/kempf.htm

Table of Contents Sample Articles There is a publishing boom in fiction by authors from the Indian subcontinent. The Reading Across the Curriculum assignment has been developed to meet many educational objectives. First, because students are reading less, it is important to encourage them to read. Any librarian can cite statistics to document the problem. In my own library, periodical usage is down almost 80 percent from pre-Internet days. Book circulation has taken a 30 percent dive. In addition, textbooks that prepackage excerpts from larger works are the sine qua non of most courses. The days when a student was required to read several complete works in the course of a semester largely exist in the memories of aging baby boomers. It is easy to blame the Internet or television, either of which, with quick hits and sound bites, encourages the short attention span of high school and young undergraduate students. It is also possible to craft reading assignments to counter this trend. Second, many educational institutions are including international education and diversity initiatives in their mission statements. At my own college, the Liberal Arts Division mission statement says, "Johnson County Community College will actively promote the understanding and appreciation of diversity . . . through the implementation of curriculum initiatives and activities as a natural part of the educational process in order to create an environment that values all people." Using an international or multicultural reading assignment allows an instructor to incorporate an international or diversity component into a course without substantially altering the teaching syllabus.

Lagaan is a cinematic statement made by Aamir Khan, of the resolve that binds a motley group of individuals, with interests ranging from the purely personal to the broadly social, and transforms the individuals into a team. This cinematic representation with vibrant colours , joy and revelry provides a cement that no public-school pride or the colours of Oxford could offer. The gentleman Vs. players distinction that has plagued Indian teams from the earliest times is nicely resolved by the movie and the dream of a super selector's winning team is realized. Do dream-teams solve socio-political and national crises and provide the adhesive so necessary for consistent display of quality and strength? Cinema like Lagaan probably taxes credulity. But who wants reality any way in a world that looks not for evidence but chases ephemera?

Online edition of India's National Newspaper Thursday, April 12, 2001 Front Page National Southern States Other States ... Next Giving words to silence A picture is worth a thousand words. But each novel by Shashi Deshpande is worth a thousand pictures. That's what makes her a celebrated writer, says HANIFA GHOSH. "CEREBRATIONS", AN essay published in the pages of the Indian Review of Books a couple of years ago, highlighted the essence of Shashi Deshpande's writing - incisive, logical but spontaneous. Now, as I rushed through the pages of That Long Silence, I understood why the author deserved the recognition she had gained. I could recall very few books which had left me equally moved. Maybe George Eliot's Mill on the Floss and William Styron's Sophie's Choice. Jaya, the protagonist of the novel, cannot forgive her father for dying and when her friend Kamat asks her, "What's your grouse against him?" she answers "He died". Her refusal to come to terms with her father's death is movingly described in the scene where she says, "I wouldn't look at the thing that lay on the ground, I wouldn't go near it." It is not everyday that one gets a chance to meet a celebrity writer and my heart skipped a beat as I entered the lecture hall of IIT, Chennai, to listen to the A. V. Krishna Rao Memorial Lecture by Shashi Deshpande on the Art of Writing.

A MATTER OF TIME By SHASHI DESHPANDE New York: The Feminist Press at the City University of New York, 1999. 269 pages, $21.95 Nirmala Bhat Does man's destiny change when he engages in a bewildering search for life's meaning? Can a woman's ambivalent attempt to clear self-doubt transform her destiny? Shashi Deshpande raises these age-old questions in her book A Matter of Time This inexplicable act sets in motion a process of change, a fulfilment of destiny, and an unraveling of age-old secrets harbored by the extended family. Sumi returns to the Big House with her three daughters, just as her mother, Kalyani, had done with her own daughters years before. The Big House, the only enduring witness of the ever-turning wheel of karma, is always ready to enfold the "victims" in its cavernous bosom. In its gardens, the bougainvillaea clings "passionately to its neighbour, the akash mallige" plant, and the branches of mango trees are so tangled they appear to "have closed ranks to protect the walls of the house." Although Deshpande's description of the gardens of the Big House is sensuous, she shies away from letting her characters examine their intimate relationships with each other. They are more comfortable solving psychological conundrums than unraveling the sexual tensions that lurk, underscoring the taboo nature of the subjects of sex and the sensuous in modern Indian society.

By Shashi Deshpande . The Feminist Press, City University of New York, New York. 1999. I n her eighth novel, the first to be published in the U.S., Shashi Deshpande stands out in a class by herself. She points out in "The Dilemma of the Writer" that one of the problems she had to face as a writer was "the isolation one works in when one writes in English in India—an isolation that is emphasized when one is a woman." All her novels depict contemporary Indian middle class families, particularly women who have to contend against centuries of gender discrimination, and find a meaning in their repressed lives by either writing or taking up a profession. "A Matter of Time" portrays the inner strength of women that sustains the members of a family, a mother and her three daughters, after the male breadwinner leaves them. Gopal, a respected professor, an adoring husband, and a loving father, walks out on his family for no other reason than that he feels a sense of emptiness, an urge to be free from the entrapment of domestic life. It is, of course, one of the prescribed stages of a man's life, according to the Hindu scriptures: the stage of vanaprastha or partial withdrawal from family life leading to total withdrawal or sannyasa, the state of total freedom. The novel opens with an epigraph from the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad where Yajnavalkya tells his wife Maitreyi: "Verily I am about to go forth from this state (of householder)." The irony here is that the lines of division between genuine renunciation on the path to seeking one's spiritual identity and copping out from the burdens of domesticity are blurred.
