For 24 years from 1951 she lived in India, marrying an Indian architect and writing novels that reflected her "insider-outsider" status and her ambivalence toward Indian society. She also partnered with Merchant Ivory, adding 23 screenplays to her achievements as a novelist and short story writer, and remaining the only person to have won both the Booker and an Oscar. Octavo. Original black boards, spine lettered in silver, top edge black. With dust jacket. Spine rolled, the binding otherwise sound and unfaded, internally fresh and clean.
