What is Visuality and Identity in Post-millennial Indian Graphic Narratives about?

This book investigates the intersection of Indian society, the encoding of post-millennial modernity and ‘ways of seeing’ through the medium of Indian graphic narratives. If seeing in Indian cultures is a mode of knowing then what might we decode and know from the Indian graphic narratives examined here? The book posits that the ‘seeing’ of post-millennial Indian graphic narratives revolves around a visuality of the inauspicious, complemented by narratives of the same. Examining both form and content across nine Indian, post-millennial graphic narratives, this book will appeal to those working in South Asian visual studies, cultural studies and comics-graphic novel studies more broadly. ** From the Back Cover “E. Dawson Varughese’s in-depth readings of the form and content of lesser known narratives that powerfully enrich the range and scope of alternative comics foreground the importance of a corpus that tackles all basic issues of post-millennial modernity in India.” ― Jan Baetens , co-author with Hugo Frey of The Graphic Novel “The ‘old’ and the ‘new’ are brought together in interesting ways in her understanding of post-millennial Indian identities through the graphic novel
