A History of the Indian Novel in English traces the development of
the Indian novel from its beginnings in the late nineteenth century
up until the present day. Beginning with an extensive introduction
that charts important theoretical contributions to the field, this
History includes extensive essays that shed light on the legacy of
English in Indian writing. Organized thematically, these essays
examine how English was 'made Indian' by writers who used the
language to address specifically Indian concerns. Such concerns
revolved around the question of what it means to be modern as well
as how the novel could be used for anti-colonial activism. By the
1980s, the Indian novel in English was a global phenomenon, and
India is now the third largest publisher of English-language books.
Written by a host of leading scholars, this History invites readers
to question conventional accounts of India's literary history.
