From the author of Dead Meat, another grisly crime story set in Delhi. A troubled evening leads a young man with a traumatic past to commit a horrific crime. The female journalist assigned to the case finds herself being pulled deeper into the darkness as she learns about dangerous secrets from the past. Moving from the glitz of present-day Delhi to the chaos and cruelty that both preceded and followed Partition, “A Natural History of Violence” is a sharp-edged crime novella that explores the handing down of generational trauma. Ankush Saikia is the author of 10 books, including the novels The Girl From Nongrim Hills (Penguin India, 2013) and The Forest Beneath the Mountains (Speaking Tiger, 2021), as well as Tears of the Dragon (Speaking Tiger, 2023), the fourth book in the Detective Arjun Arora series.
Explores the activities and political personas of women activists in Shiv Sena, a militant Indian political party. Rich in detail, this book tells the stories of women of Shiv Sena (Shivajis Army), a militant political party in Western India. It provides insight into the political networks powered by lower-level women politicians in postcolonial, globalizing cities and on their margins. Based on more than ten years of in-depth ethnographic fieldwork with the women of Shiv Sena, the work shows how women political activists in urbanizing India conjure political authority through the inventive, dangerous, and transgressive political personas known as dashing ladies. Tarini Bedi develops a feminist theory of brokerage politics, arguing that political grids where women employ political, symbolic, and material resources through the political system may be seen as channels of what can be termed political matronage.
