Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology is a voluminous compendium of 37 unique and meticulously crafted chapters, each analysing a separate text by a pioneering Indian diaspora writer, with no repetition of authors or texts. This enhances the analytical depth and diversity of this unique anthology. Within these chapters, a carefully curated and evocative array of diverse themes and concerns addressed by these writers unfolds, offering a comprehensive exploration of the diasporic literary terrain. Assimilation and acculturation in the host country, as well as repatriation in the native country, can be challenging issues for the immigrants who have lived abroad for many years. These chapters attempt to elucidate the distinctive mosaic of themes, motifs, and perspectives embedded in the selected works of Indian diaspora writers. Unlike similar anthologies, this compilation is a painstaking, granular exploration of the literary oeuvre of Indian diaspora writers, highlighting an eclectic mix of genres and remarkable diaspora experiences. In an era characterised by increased migration and cultural hybridity, this anthology is an essential read for scholars, researchers, faculty members, students, and all connoisseurs of literature alike.
