Overview
A collection of fiction by the Booker Prize–winning author and “one of the 20th century’s great female writers" (The Washington Post), drawn from her ample body of work that has been out of the public eye for decadesRuth Prawer Jhabvala began publishing fiction in 1956 and continued to do so until her death in 2013. Disinheritance showcases some of the finest of these efforts, all demonstrating Jhabvala’s powers of keen observation as she examines the westernization of India’s middle class, the interplay of social and romantic ambition, and the social mores that plague her characters, regardless of their geographical background. Salman Rushdie has described her as a “rootless intellectual,” and John Updike called her an “initiated outsider.” All these qualities shine in this very special collection, with stories undiscovered for decades.Including an introduction from the author’s 1979 lecture when awarded the Neil Gunn Prize in Scotland, Disinheritance balances a host of cultural influences to showcase Jhabvala’s signature voice and her buoyant, satiric fiction.
