Bio-bibliographical outlines of each, locating Toru’s strength in her ballads and Sarojini’s in
perfecting her narrow lyric range. Both romantics, Sarojini swung more towards the Decadent
period. Toru showed promise of a wider talent. Looks at “Gold-mulched Hours” and “Green
leaves are Gold” as evidence of striking imagery

Attempts a critical appraisal of the plays, which compare favourably with other Indian
plays available in English. Ezekiel's stylistic approach in Three Plays and Song of Deprivation
frankly admits itself as theater. Each play is an effective exposé of the hollowness people

characters are ditinct types, not individuals; the situation is dominant. The Sleepwalkers is his
best play; a ritualistic style is used to satirize the Indians who worship all things American.
