Hi everyone. I'm going to give points to who will answer this question for me please. Here is the passage --- A great shiver ran through the house like a wind blowing that was not a wind so much as a stream of shining light, shimmering and undulating through the still, shadowy house, a radiant serpent, not without menace, some threat of danger. Whether it liked it or not, the house became the one chosen by Raja for a visitation, a house in waiting. With her sari wrapped around her shoulders as if she were cold, Sarla went about unlocking cupboards, taking out sheets, silver, table linen. Her own trunks and Ravi's, had to be thrown open. What had been put away had to be taken out again. Ravi sat uncomfortably in the darkened drawing room, watching her go back and forth, his lips thin and tight, but his expression one of helplessness. Sometimes he dared to make things difficult for her, demanding a book or file he knew was at the very bottom of the trunk, pretending that it was indispensable, but when she performed the difficult task with every expression of weary martyrdom, he relented and asked , 'Are you still all right, Sarla'? She refused to answer, her face was clenched in a tightly contained storm of emotion.

I think the author a noteworthy woman novelist, is a modern Indo-English writer, widely acclaimed not only in India but also in the world of fiction writing. She emerged after independence, deliberating on the highly debatable contemporary issues. Best On what I see the author is a keen observer of the society and the position of the women in the contemporary society draws her special attention. The novels are noted for the profound probing into the inner life and feelings of the women, bounded by the shackles of the middle class. They are the explorations of the family problems, which perhaps is the chief cause behind the estrangement of the women from their family. Literature for her is not a means of escaping reality but an exploration and an inquiry. She prefers the private to the public world and avoids the traditional grooves of external reality and physical world. In fact, her real concern is the thorough investigation of human psyche, inner climate, and she unravels the mystery of the inner life of her characters. Her main engagement is to study human existence and human predicament, her exploration being a quest for self. Author main focus, in this way, is to depict the psychic states of her protagonists at some crucial juncture of their lives.
