You have to feel for Aziz. The guy is really nice! So then, can a nice guy like Aziz straddle two worlds, the Indian and the British Indian? Race, friendship and nationalism become the central theme here. I think you certainly can see this novel through this lens. Aziz and Fielding have a friendship that isn't able to bridge the cultural gap. One wonders if they imposed this gap or if it is organic and uncrossable.
