Abhyudaya Shrivastava is on page 10 of 348 of The Enclave: The language is very pretentious. I would not say it is unbearable though. It is just making the reading difficult, sort of like a barrier to get through. This is exactly why a writer should not let his ego get in the way of his writing.

While reading this novel, I was acutely aware of the pertinence of this work of literature. It is a politically charged novel written as a sharp commentary on the era of Emergency and the society of those times. It is written with a sense of purpose. ...more
