Anstey is a humorous novel written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the misadventures of Chunder Bindabun Bhosh, an Indian student who navigates his journey from Calcutta to Cambridge and eventually London. With a satirical lens, it explores themes of cultural collision and social dynamics, often highlighting the absurdities within British society through Bindabun's experiences. The opening of the novel introduces Chunder Bindabun Bhosh during a tumultuous sea voyage as he struggles with seasickness, providing a comedic backdrop for his character. After his arrival in England, he quickly integrates into Cambridge life, forming a close friendship with a British aristocrat and getting involved in various escapades, including the rescue of a damsel from a cow and a turbulent academic life. His endearing clumsiness and sociable nature set the tone for a series of humorous episodes, as he attempts to forge his identity in the unfamiliar landscape of British high society. The narrative's lighthearted and witty style invites readers into Bindabun's charmingly chaotic world.
