Selection of Ghose's autobiographical and literary essays; some previously published.
Beckett’s Company assembles a wide range of Zulfikar Ghose’ essays from the personal to the scholarly. The personal memoirs of driving from Bombay to Delhi in 1952 and of ‘Going Home’ to Pakistan for a visit will resonate with South Asians living at home and overseas. Th e selection of literary essays on such familiar subjects as Beckett and Shakespeare and on the not so familiar Thomas Berger and Christopher Middleton, all written in Ghose’ inimitable style, will be of interest to scholars and to general readers who enjoy a discussion of ideas in a lucid, perceptive,and witty prose.
