Offers a close reading of Arun Kolatkar's canonical poetic works that relocates the genre of poetry to the centre of both Indian literary modernist studies and postcolonial Indian studies. Nerlekar shows how a bilingual, materialist reading of Kolatkar's texts uncovers a uniquely resistant sense of the “local†that defies the monolinguistic cultural pressures of the post-1960 years.
