Pressezitat
“A timely piece of work. Not only does it survey keyfiction texts which speak to and of post-millennial India, it raisestheoretical issues of representation amidst the shifting landscape of writingand publishing in India, and the reception of such published material in the West.This theoretical positioning is the book’s most valuable component and it worksat its best when the analyses of the texts and the publishing/literary sceneconnect back to this paradigm.” (E. Dawson Varughese, Asiatic, Vol. 9 (2), December,2015)
