Synopsis
Evaluation of Postmodern Indian English Literature which refers to the works of literature after 1980 is not an easy task. It has transcended the local and transformed into global, successfully meeting the challenges of the Bhasa literatures at home and Postcolonial literature and Anglo-American literatures abroad. If Raja Rao's Kanthapura Rushdie's Midnight's Children (1981) and Nissim Ezeliel's Latter-day Psalms (1982) mark postmodernism in India English Literature. The present book aims at analyzing critically the Postmodern Indian English Literature genre-wise-poetry, fiction, short story, drama and autobiography, beginning from 1980 to the present-day works. Important poets, novelists, short-story writers and playwrights like Nissim Ezeliel, .K. Ramanujan, Jayanta Mahapatra, kamala das, Shiv K. Kumar, Keki N. Daruwalla, Dom Moraes, Amitav ghosh, Shashi Tharoor, Anita Desai, Vikram seth, Arundhati Roy, Manju Kapur, Raj Kamal Jha and many others have been studied from a different perspective. The present book is comprehensive, analytical, self-contained and easily comprehensible. It is hoped hat it would prove an asset to students who seek an introduction to Postmodern Indian English Literature and would be of particular appeal to all those persons interested in the diverse contributions of Indian English writers of repute.
