   If Jade excels at subverting and deflating the narratives of privilege and   
   colonialism -- her initial bad review of Hardie's novel, her refusal to adore   
   London's golden boy, her refusal to move in with Hardie and his wife, her   
   rebellious friendship with    
   Margery -- Ravi "remembers the things one has said" (176). He is an editor,   
   someone who can keep multiple versions/visions of a narrative in his head   
   without contradiction -- and also someone who can spot the telling details,   
   the places for improvement,    
   the moments where a story's plot or tone may be revised. As Jade says quite   
   early about the Mimnaugh review: "I was worried he would give me helpful   
   critique, which I would have to listen to because Ravi's judgment is unerring"   
   (87). Jade is constantly    
   shifting between social and personal narratives -- British imperial   
   subject/foreigner, good girl/fallen woman, literary critic/pleasure reader --   
   and Ravi is the one person in the book who can follow the thread between all   
   these shifting stories. As such,   
    he is perfectly suited to her, and Jade recognizes it.
