He has made his mark in both fiction and non-fiction but is best known for his novels. The anthology includes critical papers and celebrated scholar of the respective field on the diverse aspects of Ghosh"s novels. The Circle of reason is one of the finest books that critically assess almost all aspects of Ghosh. This anthology of scholarly and contemplated articles is not all about his novels. The Circle of Reason is Claire Chamber which suggests the philosophies of reason. Science and technology are also associated with these philosophies. It deals with the unsettled life of its protagonist, Alu, who is an orphan enlisted by his foster father-Balaram as a soldier in his crusade against the forces of myth and reason. Life of Pasteur provides them with much needed stimulus while they are living at Lalpukur, a small border village in Bengal. Harassment of the weak oppressed is a universal phenomenon. The subtlest but nonetheless the dangerously damaging form persecution is Human Harassment. Human Harassment can be defined as the use of abusive or derogatory comments or remarks (epithets), usage of comments or words based on race, gender, caste, nationality, religion, creed, region or affiliation. Often these are covered or masked with suggestions, jokes, remarks, passing comments, etc, designed to cause the victim great discomfort.Human Harassment includes criticizing, accusing, blaming, backbiting, bullying, brainwashing, criticizing, shaming, raging, silent treatment, thought policing, telling and more. Grumman observed that language provides a rich vocabulary for inflicting harm on others by attacking or questioning another person"s character, dignity and integrity, or for provocative acts such as annoying, (Sexual) harassment, mobbing and bossing. The novels of Amitav Ghosh are vignette of Human Harassment. They give a realistic picture of how these different words insidiously insert themselves into human relationships at home, at workplace, in everyday social contacts and public gatherings. Ghosh through his novels has emphasized that communication is not mere exchange of information or ideas but it is exchange of feelings and sentiments. It is a conversation not through the sense but through hearts. When hurtful words are used they pierce like sharp arrows into the very soul of being. Circle of Reason revolves around Nachiketa. He loses his parents in a car accident. He does not know about his uncle Balaram and aunt Toru debi earlier but they show love. They take care of him as their own son. Balaram and his brother had been long estranged. He has an extraordinary head which is several times large for eight years old boy.Public are teasing his head which is looking differently. Bolaida utters, his head is not similar to rock, and it is an Alu, a huge fleshly and lumpy potato. From that day onwards he is named as Alu which became a name throughout his life, but Nachiketa Bose is a typical Bengali name. Balaram"s chronological studies of Alu"s physical appearance confirm his surmise. His intuition was proved in every detail; Alu"s body, his mind, his legs, his arms, not to speak of the organ, correspond ended exactly to his great joy. Alu is apprenticed to Shombhu Debnath who is a lowly man in Lalpukur, yet Alu does the same work as he is passionate about weaving. He weaves tons and tons of cloth through his skillful weaving. But unfortunately the over use of his thumb turns it atrophied, Kulfi, his shipmate, holds up the hand of Alu for everyone to see. She scornfully states, look, you are looking at the most useless thing in the world a weaver without thumbs. She pulls his hand back and slaps his face with it. "Hold them up in front of you. They remind that you can never do anything again. Later when Zindi request Kulfi to pose as Alu"s wife for the security of the group, she continues her contemptuous remark, "Married to him … Married to that thumb less half-wit? It"s no use, she won"t believe it. Not when she sees him and his withered" (385). These insulting of Kulfi naturally make Alu carry his shrunken thumbs with shame and disgust. Such deceitful expressions drive him to feel as if he had lost his very manhood. Kind and consoling words help a person to overlook even his physical disability but the ravaging remark of Kulfi have inflicted more pain and made him be rigid than the withered thumbs of Alu. Bhubed Roy has thus set in motion Alu"s flight from northern India. The young man is relentlessly pursued by Jyoti Das in a pointless misidentification of "the bad guy". The first stage of his quest for identity has seen him as an observer of passions of various kinds. In the next stage, the realization becomes more acute as he becomes the principal actor of his own story. Haunted down as an extremist, with the policeman Jyotidas

Of all the Indian writers who have used Gandhi for their creative purposes, Chaman Nahal is the most significant. His The Gandhi Quartet is a landmark in the annals of Indian English fiction which consists of the novels like The Crown and the Loincloth, The Salt of Life, The Triumph of the Tricolour and Azadi. The Gandhi Quartet successfully reconstructs the three stages of India's struggle for freedomthe non-cooperation movement, the civil disobedience movement and the Quit India movement of 1942. It also gives a moving account of the division of India into India and Pakistan, and the disaster that follows it. In the end, Nahal seems to suggest that a return to Gandhi is the only solution to the problems people face today. It is hoped that a critical analysis of The Gandhi Quartet, the most expensive commonwealth novel, in terms of its themes and techniques, would help gain fresh insights into Nahal's fictional art. Viewed in this context, acquires a greater significance, as it reminds us in unflinching terms, of the need to hold fast to the Gandhian ideals in a world torn apart by narrow sectarian and communal considerations.
