Contemporary Literature from Northeast India

Deathworlds, Terror and Survival

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book is the first to consider the representations of the effects of political terror and survival in contemporary literature from Northeast India. Fictions from this polyglot region offer alternative representations that show the post-colonial nation-state to engage in acts of aggression that parallel colonial regimes.
