Interview With Vikram Seth

Vikram Seth, along with others, recently signed an open letter directed to the Government of India and the Delhi High Court, asking it to repeal Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code. This section prohibits sexual relations between men as well as other “unnatural” acts. 

 

In the light of that action, Outlook India has an interview with Seth asking him about how it feels to be bisexual and living in a country where his sexual orientation is proscribed by the law. While there are some rather cliche-ridden questions, Seth answers well, and at length.
