This book seeks to critically engage with issues arising out of Indian writing in English and Bhasa writing. It interrogates Amitav Ghosh’s The Hungry Tide and Buddhadeb Guha’s Bhasa text Kojagar (translated in English as The Bounty of the Goddess). Interrogation of textual instability in both suggests the limitation of maintaining diametric perspectives.
