Indian novels often focus on specific regions rather than the entire nation. This is due to India's immense diversity. Authors find success by detailing a single city or a culturally similar area. Novels like Devika Rege's Quarterlife and Anjum Hasan's History's Angel exemplify this approach. Anuradha Marwah's Aunties of Vasant Kunj also achieves universality through a smaller narrative scope.
