Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: B
Explanation
To solve this, let's match each book to its author. Anita Desai wrote the novel 'In Custody' (A-3). Amitav Ghosh is the author of the historical fiction 'Sea of Poppies' (B-2). Nobel laureate Amartya Sen penned 'The Argumentative Indian', a collection of essays on Indian history and culture (C-1). Finally, 'Unaccustomed Earth' is a celebrated collection of short stories by Jhumpa Lahiri (D-4). By matching these specific pairs (A-3, B-2, C-1, D-4), we see that Option C is the correct answer.
