Straightforward, sometimes philosophical, In Black and White features tales such as
?At Twenty-two?, in which an old and blind miner must find his way out of a flooded
pit; ?The Judgement of Dungara?, in which a missionary battles against the malice
of the High Priest; and ?The Sending of Dana Da?, in which an Englishman meets a
quirky ?independent experimenter?.
Snapshots of social and political life in the British Raj, this collection throws into
sharp relief the uneven relationships that developed between the ruler and the
ruled.
