Among the later writers, the most notable is Salman Rushdie, born in India and now living in the USA. Rushdie, with his famous work "Midnight's Children" (Booker Prize 1981, Booker of Bookers 1992, and Best of the Bookers 2008), ushered in a new trend of writing. He used a hybrid language – English generously peppered with Indian terms – to convey a theme that could be seen as representing the vast canvas of India. He is usually categorised under the magic realism mode of writing most famously associated with Gabriel García Márquez. Nayantara Sehgal was one of the first female Indian writers in English to receive wide recognition. Her fiction deals with India's elite responding to the crises engendered by political change. She was awarded the 1986 Sahitya Akademi Award for English, for her novel, "Rich Like Us" (1985), by the Sahitya Akademi, India's National Academy of Letters. Anita Desai, who was shortlisted for the Booker Prize three times, received a Sahitya Akademi Award in 1978 for her novel "Fire on the Mountain" and a British Guardian Prize for "The Village by the Sea". Her daughter Kiran Desai won the 2006 Man Booker Prize for her second novel, The Inheritance of Loss. Ruskin Bond received Sahitya Akademi Award for his collection of short stories "Our Trees Still Grow in Dehra" in 1992. He is also the author of a historical novel "A Flight of Pigeons", which is based on an episode during the Indian Rebellion of 1857.
