Book Synopsis

Exploring expressions of Indianness' buried within and scattered across post-millennial Indian speculative fiction in English, this book asks questions around what it means to belong' to an India of now' and what it might mean to belong to multiple Indias of the (near) future.

With dystopia, near-future, apocalyptic Indias and fantastical metropolises all imagined across this body of writing, Post-Millennial Indian Speculative Fiction in English traces economic, social and political transformations in post-2000 New India' across these various narratives. Drawing on established notions of the speculative, Dawson Varughese argues for a recognized, post-millennial canon of Indian speculative writing in English which moves beyond Western-centric frames of reference, centring instead on Indian sensibilities, expressions of belonging to India and speculative Indian' futures.
Organized around key tropes and characteristics of post-millennial Indian speculat
