There are a number of rationales that have gone into the making of it. And its outcome has also been multi-directional. In India, more than post world war circumstances, postcolonial pressures have played a crucial and unique role. It is a fact that a genre called Indian Writing in English is unlimitedly and enormously flourished and continues to do so only during this period i.e. after 1980 to 2010. Under this background, this paper documents Postmodern Indian English Novel highlighting its past, and other aspects like Translated (regional vernacular) Novels into English, and the contemporary books on criticism.
