What is Niranjan Mondal's A Tale of High and Low Tides: Dalit Literature from Bangla about?
Niranjan Mondal is one of the most prolific writers of Dalit literature in Bangla known for his immersive fictions that root themselves in the lives of people from the Sundarbans, the mangrove forest in east India. This volume of the translation of his novel, A Tale of High and Low Tides (Ujaan Bhatir Kathokata), along with critical essays and an interview of the author, introduces his work to a new readership.Mondal’s writings highlight the unique lived experiences of the inhabitants of the Sundarbans and are meditative explorations of the links between caste and expression, nature and human life, and the ‘centre’ and the ‘margin’. This book creates a dialogue between the body of literature that is visible and that which is not, as well as between biography and literature. Mondal’s own views on contemporary life, society, and literature—both mainstream and marginalized—will help readers understand the relationship between literature and its social context. The volume creates an academic framework within which Mondal’s fiction can be read, appreciated and critically analysed.Part of the Voices from the Margins series, this critical edition will be an important resource for students
