Abstract

When problems are crowded upon the present generation they get retire into the works of modern writers as they seek for love and emotions. The writers write about their despair, failures, experiences and the reality is enriched with the language to renew the truth of life and this aspect attracts the mass as they understand the pulse of the readers since the readers are active participants. Now- a- days everything is digitalized, in this digital era, the young people are competing with machines, they react with the things and thingness; the superficiality, fragmentariness, multiplicity as each possess their own set of values and over-arching truth to bear drives them to further understanding of liberal-democratic advance. Readers find refuge in the works and delve deeply into the novels they read to get rejuvenated and refreshed. A book can change reader’s life. When youngsters fail in their perspective and find difficult to comprehend the most intricate feelings to the previous age group they quietly submit to the realm of these writers and enjoy reading the books of these writers as they will get to see their own replica in the sort of characters. This paper attempts to analyze the novels of young writers’ i.e. Chetan Bhagat, Durjoy Dutta, Maanvi Ahuja, Ravinder Singh, Anurag Garg and Gunjan Narang and gives the picture of present generation and their style of living with senses, rule-less and pictures of the notion of ‘eclecticism’. Doestoevsky commented “Love has a meaning and the search for meaning in existentialism is search for self.” (Anish 2011: 45). Let the readers search the self and get insight from the experiences dealt by the writers.
