Synopsis Indian Literature in English: New perspectives is a collection of fifteen scholarly essays on fiction, short story and drama written in India. They focus on different aspects like humanism, style, ontology, decolonization, transcultural discourse, the status of women, techniques, myth, post-colonialism and so on. The book, it is hoped, will be of tremendous use not only to the research scholars who take up Indian literature in English for their project but also to all the serious scholars of literature and of socio-cultural studies.
