Masters, John. Bhowani Junction. First edition. London, Michael Joseph, 1954. 13.5 x 20.5cm. 367 pages. Original hardcover with dustjacket in protective Mylar. Very good condition, other than slight age darkening to endpapers and mottling to front board. First published in 1954 in the wake of the partition of India, John Masters’ great novel Bhowani Junction has increased in stature over the years. Standing between E.M. Forster’s A Passage to India and the widely acclaimed works of such writers as Paul Scott and Salman Rushdie, Bhowani Junction is both a richly intriguing novel and a superb evocation of the tensions and conflicts at the birth of modern India.
