Abstract


Upamanyu Chatterjee is worried about social issues in contemporary Indian writing in English. This current paper is an endeavour to investigate 'Upamanyu Chatterjee's Social Vision'. His books hilariously caricature Indian Administrative Service and Indian working class homegrown issues. His significant subjects are woven around the Indian urban and rustic life, degenerate organization and homegrown issues. His books investigate the connection between contemporary Indian issues – monetary, cultural, political and social. English, August: An Indian Story (1988) is a continuation of The Mammaries of the Welfare State (2004), The Last Burden (1993) and Weight Loss (2006). The books talk about the cultural struggles of people in different circumstances. The principal characters encounter cultural contentions. Struggle emerges for various reasons in human culture. This paper aims to analyze Upamanyu Chatterjee’s interpersonal sense modality.
