Synopsis
**LONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN’S PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION 2024**
**WINNER OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE FOR HISTORY**
'A classic ... wonderfully enjoyable' WILLIAM DALRYMPLE
This is the authoritative history of South Asia in the 20th century.
Shadows at Noon tells the subcontinent's story from the British Raj through independence and partition to the forging of the modern nations of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. 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
'Chatterji writes with infectious relish' DOMINIC SANDBROOK
'Truly magnificent' MIHIR BOSE

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. 1st Edition. Tiny amounts of light shelf wear only. Appears to be unread. Joya Chatterji's Shadows at Noon is a major, award?winning history of South Asia across the twentieth century. Rather than telling the story strictly through politics or chronology, Chatterji uses a thematic approach to explore how everyday life, culture, family structures, food, leisure, migration, and social change shaped the modern identities of India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. The book traces the region from the final decades of the British Raj through independence and Partition, and into the formation of the three modern nation?states. Chatterji challenges the idea that these countries are defined by "inherent" differences, instead highlighting the deep continuities and shared experiences across the subcontinent.

Hardback. Joya Chatterji, Vintage Publishing. A definitive and ambitious new history of the Indian subcontinent - this is Tony Judt's Postwar for South Asia Shadows at Noon is an ambitious synthesis of decades of research and scholarship which explores the key strands of South Asian history in the twentieth century with clarity and authority. Unlike other narrative histories of the subcontinent that concentrate exclusively on politics, here food, leisure and the household are given equal importance to discussions of nationhood, the development of the state and patterns of migration. While it tells the subcontinent's story from the British Raj to independence and partition and on to the forging of the modern nations of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, the book's structure is thematic rather than chronological. Each of the chapters illuminates on overarching theme or sphere that has shaped South Asia over the course of the century. This format allows the reader to explore particular issues - such as the changing character of nationalism or food consumption - over time and in depth. Shadows at Noon is a bold, innovative and personal work that pushes back against standard narratives of 'inherent' differences between India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Its purpose is to make contemporary South Asia intelligible to readers who are fascinated by the subcontinent's cultural vibrancy and diversity but are often perplexed by its social and political make-up. And it illuminates the many aspects that its people have in common rather than what divides them. Hardback. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781847925497
