This volume maps the breadth of genre literature in India across seven languages (Tamil, Urdu, Bangla, Hindi, Odia, Marathi, English), and nine genres for the first time. Using methods from literary analysis, book history, and Indian aesthetic theories, the volume examines the variety of contexts in which genre literature is read, activated and used, from political debates surrounding national and regional identities to caste and class conflicts within Indian genre fiction (including detective/crime fiction, science fiction/fantasy, pulp fiction, comics and graphic novels, romance, horror and mythology) in translation and through publication processes.
