Description
Weaving history, myth and current political realities, these three stories by noted bengali writer Magasweta Devi eplore troubling motifs in contemporary Indian life through the figures and narratives of the indigenous tribes of India. Devi's texts are examined and amplified through an interview and critical essays by Gaytri Spivak. Her essays explode the scope and impact of these stories, connecting the necessary "power lines" not only between local and international structures of power (patriarchy, nationalsims, late capitalism), but tracing them to the very door of the university.
