Amit Chaudhuri represents both a synthesis and a tension between his Bengali and postmodern sensibility. His writings serve as a wonderful key to understanding the vitality and specificity of Indian modernity and of modern transformation of Indian civilization. His works reflect the Indian values coated in Bengali sensibility. In the 20th century the term ‘regional sensibility’ had been used to denote an intellectual and emotional perceptiveness, the sense employed by T.S. Eliot when he described the "Dissociation of Sensibility.” Regional sensibility means characteristic ways of responding in perception, thought, and feeling to experience. It stresses the setting, speech, social erection and duties of a specific district. It shows not only the native colour but also an important condition affecting the personality of the characters and their ways of rational, sense and relating. His works deal with the physical features, people, life, customs, habits, manners, traditions, languages and life-styles of people of his own region. This, however, does not mean that Chaudhuri’s work was a mere factual reporting or photographic reproduction of reality. His regional sensibility emphasizes the uniqueness, and the various ways in which it was different from other localities. Thus, regional sensibility means the cultural and moral attitude of people, their overall characters, and customs and the way of life. Chaudhuri’s writing was characterized by the prominence of regional sensibility in his fictional works.
