The Circle of Reason (novel)
The Circle of Reason is the first novel by Indian writer Amitav Ghosh. It was published in 1986.[1] It follows an Indian protagonist who, suspected of being a terrorist, leaves India for northern Africa and the Middle East. Blending elements of fable and picaresque fiction, it is distinctly postcolonial in its marginalization of Europe and postmodern in its nonlinear structure and thick intertextuality.
