500			_aPost nineteen eighties what made English translation from Indian languages a culturally desirable activity? This question leads Kothari to examine the changing cultural universe of urban English-speaking middle class in India. She examines in detail readership patterns attitudes to English and the course of translation studies in general. The comfort with which English is used with an Indian language as in “Yeh Dil Maange More” or “Hungry Kya” reflects a sense of familiarity that has been made with English. From this broader context of bilingualism in the first part of the book Kothari moves on to the state of Gujarat. Taking up the case of Gujarati she demonstrates the micro issues involved in translation and politics of language
