The study would go to an in-depth analysis of these two books to understand how Bhagat identifies the ‘new lingo’ of the Gen Y, at the same time concentrating on the many ‘Englishes’ that can be identified in a country like ours. The paper would also study how Bhagat looks at the importance of English in different contexts.
