The present paper focuses on the study of representation of modern world particularly a twentieth century era which is full of disillusionment and disintegration has been very creatively penned down in critical and analytical mode in works of T.S. Eliot and Nirjan Bhagat. It is truly said that literature mirrored its society as it is. This paper deals with the impact of modern ethics on modern mind. Both the works sets an example of religious bankruptcy and sterility of modern world. The society which is chaotic and inhumane in every aspect is being presented through both the works in symbolic tone. Wasteland talks about arid land keeping in mind the Heart of England that is London in the same way Nirjan Bhagat�s �Pravalvdeep� deals with the most metropolitan city of India that is Bombay as he calls it �Adhunik Aranya�. Both the works throws light on urbanization, nothingness, rootlessness, spiritual and emotional degradation of generation. The consciousness of modern sterile world is shown by the great writers of Twentieth century throughout the world. It is unavoidable to point out that both writers are greatly influenced by classic works of previous ages such as Baudelaire, Chaucer, Shakespeare, Kavi Nanhalal and Sundram in manner of narrative and in narration of subject matter.
