'Half the Night is Gone' is written by which Sahitya Akademi winner?
Amitabha Bagchi
Half the Night is Gone (2018) is the third novel by Amitabha Bagchi, published by Juggernaut Books. The novel won the DSC Prize for South Asian Literature in 2019 and went on to win the Sahitya Akademi Award for English in 2019. The book is structured as a novel-within-a-novel, exploring the life of the Hindi novelist Vishwanath grieving the loss of his son.
The other listed authors — Amitav Ghosh, Amit Chaudhuri and Anuradha Roy — are also celebrated Indian writers, but they did not write this particular work.
Hence the correct answer is Amitabha Bagchi.
