Waiting In Line At The Drugstore While reading “Waiting In Line At The Drugstore” by James Thomas Jackson‚ I was filled with utter disgust.

Jackson paints such a vivid picture with his harrowingly descriptive words that I couldn’t help but feel empathetic and share his strong resentment towards the “whites”. Throughout the story‚ he expresses how he feels discomfort being in the presence

Waiting for the Mahatma (1955) is perhaps the most controversial novel of R. K. Narayan. Apart from its artistic merits and demerits (which are considerable)‚ many Indian readers of the novel have felt dissatisfied with it and found it difficult to warm up to it particularly because of the way the Mahatma is portrayed in it.
