A STUDY OF PROSE STYLE AND NARRATIVE TECHNIQUE IMPLEMENTED IN THE RAJ QUARTET

The Raj Quartet is the dramatic tale of the British conquest of India in modern years. India was the British Empire's "Jewel in the Crown," and the bond between Indians and their colonial rulers was, if not least, highly complicated. Paul Scott weaves the stories of many memorable citizens whose destiny is colored by the British law in India. He speaks of the national, personal and historical joys and traumatic incidents under which this law dissolves. He produced interesting identities – Indians and British, Muslims and Hindu citizens – who reflect the dynamic connections between rulers and subjects. He does this in a manner that is neither emotional, neither complaining nor confused.
