Reading New India : Post-Millennial Indian Fiction in English

"Reading New India is an insightful exploration of contemporary Indian writing in English. Exploring the work of such writers as Aravind Adiga, Usha K.R. and Taseer, the book looks at how 'new' India has been recreated and defined in an English language literature that is now reaching a global audience. The book describes how Indian fiction has moved beyond notions of 'postcolonial' writing to reflect increasingly confident and diverse cultures. Reading New India covers such topics as: Representations of the city--Mumbai and Bangalore; Chick Lit to 'Crick Lit'; Crime novels; Graphic Novels. Including a chronological time-line, biographies of major authors, further reading and a glossary of Hindi terms, this book is an essential guide for students of contemporary world literature and postcolonial writing."--Page 4 of cover.
