Aestheticism in the Novels of Arun Joshi
Dr. Lalit
Abstract:
Arun Joshi is one of the few Indian writers in English who has successfully exposed the intricacies and complexities of modern Indian life. He has written convincing fiction. This study focuses on Arun Joshi's books The Foreigner (1968), The Strange Case of Billy Budd (1969), and The Strange Case of Billy Budd (1970).Biswas (1971), The Apprentice (1974), and The Last Labyrinth (1981) are some of his films. Joshi's paintings have attempted to extend the urgency of today's urbanized and deeply industrialized growth, with its dehumanizing effect on the individual. Existentialist thinkers such as Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Sren Kierkegaard had a big influence on Arun Joshi. Joshi, a master of mental understanding, delves deeply into the internal openings of the human mind. Arun Joshi added more direction and measurement to the Indian English story. His works depict the forlorn questers' terrible anguish. According to Joshi, the significance of life lies not in the polished surfaces of preconceptions, but in the murk overgrown mazes of the spirit.
