Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. This book tells the story of South's Asia's twentieth century in eight chapters by Director of the Centre of South Asian Studies at Cambridge University - an undisputed authority on the subject.This book tells the story of South's Asia's twentieth century in eight chapters. Unlike standard narrative histories of the subcontinent that concentrate exclusively on politics, here nature, objects, technologies, cultures, and people's changing relationships to them and to each other, are central preoccupations.The structure of the book is unorthodox. Unusually for a work of this kind, it is thematic rather than chronological. Chapters address specific questions that might arise in the minds of a 'lay', but thoughtful, reader; but each chapter is chronological within itself, analysing change over a century in one particular sphere. This format allows the reader to explore particular issues - say, the changing character of nationalism, migration or consumption - over time and in depth.Shadows at Noon is a bold and innovative work that pushes back against standard narratives of 'inherent' differences between India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. The purpose of the book is to make contemporary South Asia intelligible, while sharing with the reader its infinite colour and excitement. The book does not 'talk down' to the reader or attempt, in facile ways, to simplify the history of a vast, and almost mythically intricate, society. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Unlike other histories of the region which concentrate exclusively on politics, here food, leisure and the household are given as much importance as nationhood, migration, and the state.Chatterji makes contemporary South Asia - its cultural vibrancy, diversity, social structures and political make-up - accesible to everyone. In so doing this bold, innovative, and personal work rallies against narratives of 'inherent' differences between India, Pakistan and Bangladesh and reveals the many things its people have in common.'The story of South Asia told with verve, wit and brilliance' ANURADHA ROY, author of All the Lives We Never Lived'Truly magnificent' MIHIR BOSE, journalist and author of The Nine Waves'Wonderful' SIR MARK TULLY, former Bureau Chief of BBC, New Delhi** WINNER OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE FOR HISTORY **** SHORTLISTED FOR THE CUNDILL HISTORY PRIZE 2024 **.
