Literary contemporaries on Zero Degree[edit]
- In his foreword to the Malayalam translation of Zero Degree, Paul Zacharia wrote, 'It is like an open experimental laboratory. Amidst the smoke, noxious vapors, and beautiful imagery, I experienced a wondrous journey.'[7]
- Tarun Tejpal opines that Zero Degree is remarkable for its experimental voice and its varying and shifting tonalities.[8]

- Noted translator Jason Grunebaum[10] considers Zero Degree wildly exciting and complains that Charu does not write in Hindi, so that he would translate Charu's works to English.[11]
- Poet Vivek Narayanan[12] says about Zero Degree: 'I think we should take Zero Degree not just as a playful, ironic “postmodern” novel but as a novel of oppositions and contradictions: a deeply autobiographical novel where the self has been scattered, an ironic pastiche novel that speaks to raw experience, a defiantly cosmopolitan novel than nonetheless pins a very particular kind of schizophrenic rage that perhaps—I could be wrong—any Tamilian will immediately recognise.'[13][14]
