Zusammenfassung:An assessment of twenty-first-century Indian-English fiction, 'Writing India Anew' features fifteen essays by some of the most prominent scholars in the field and explores a range of themes, including the remapping of mythology and history, the reassessment of globalized India, and technical experimentation in the epic, science fiction, and the graphic novel.
