Violence and Postcolonial Marginalities in South Asian Literature explores the multifaceted dimensions of violence represented in the literature of South Asia.

The book sheds light on the relationships between colonial legacies, social structures, and violence in the South Asian region. In the context of South Asia, a region marked by rich cultural diversity and historical complexities, the intersections of postcolonialism, violence, and literature become particularly salient. Through critical engagements with Dalit, feminist, and environmental literatures, this collection illuminates how corporeal, psychic, and spatial violence are normalized by hegemonic narratives and inscribed onto subaltern bodies and landscapes.
