From the dust jacket: "The scope of this memorial volume is set out in the Editor's Preface: "the intention was to limit the collection Indian writers of English. A personal letter went to sixty writers; it set a deadling and asked for a thousand words (or more) preferably in the form of a personal comment on any aspect of Eliot's work. This restriction was however waivable; and the diversity of tone in the contributions will show how the writers have exercised freedom while offering their tributes." "
