About the Book 'EXPERIMENTAL AND INQUISITIVE, THESE ARE POEMS THAT DEMAND AN IMAGINATION WHERE "DRAVIDIAN" IS STRUCK OUT FOR "DARWINIAN" AND "WHALE" REPLACED BY "WHILE", TIME BECOMING SPACE LIKE IT DOES ON A CLOCKFACE.' -SUMANA ROY In his latest poetry collection, Arjun Rajendran begins by resurrecting voices and stories from 18th-century Pondicherry: of a French ship that must change its flag to render itself invisible to the English fleet, of blind men contemplating a lunar eclipse or an unfortunate condemned to the absurdity of a second execution. Then jumping across centuries, the other two sections in this book explore intimacy, travel, hauntings and generational angst. About the Author Arjun Rajendran is the author of Snake Wine (Les Éditions du Zaporogue, 2014), The Cosmonaut in Hergé's Rocket (Paperwall, 2017) and a chapbook, Your Baby Is Starving (Aainanagar/VAYAVYA, 2017). Arjun was the Charles Wallace Fellow in Creative Writing (University of Stirling, Scotland, 2018). He is also the poetry editor at The Bombay Literary Magazine and the founder of The Quarantine Train, a poetry community that is a response to the great pandemic.

The Routledge Encyclopedia of Indian Writing in English

Today, Indian writing in English is a fi eld of study that cannot be overlooked. Whereas at the turn of the 20th century, writers from India who chose to write in English were either unheeded or underrated, with time the literary world has been forced to recognize and accept their contribution to the corpus of world literatures in English. Showcasing the burgeoning field of Indian English writing, this encyclopedia documents the poets, novelists, essayists, and dramatists of Indian origin since the pre-independence era and their dedicated works. Written by internationally recognized scholars, this comprehensive reference book explores the history and development of Indian writers, their major contributions, and the critical reception accorded to them. The Routledge Encyclopedia of Indian Writing in English will be a valuable resource to students, teachers, and academics navigating the vast area of contemporary world literature.

The Productivity of Negative Emotions in Postcolonial Literature

This volume explores the possibilities and potentialities of “negative” affect in postcolonial literature and literary theory, featuring work on postcolonial studies, First Nations studies, cognitive cultural studies, cognitive historicism, reader response theory, postcolonial feminist studies, and trauma studies. The chapters of this work investigate negative affect in all its types and dimensions: analyses of the structures of feeling created by socio-political forces; assemblages and alliances produced by negative emotion; enactive interrelationships of emotion and environment; and the ethical implications of emotional response, to name a few. It seeks to rebrand “negative” emotions as productive forces which can paradoxically confer pleasure, agential power, and social progress through literary representation.
