Step into a thought-provoking world to explore the dynamic interplay of literary aesthetics and some of the key contemporary themes of postcoloniality, posthumanism, the female body, gendered geographies, myth and new media, cinema, and literature. While the first three sections of the book foster a dialogue amongst scholars and practitioners to examine how literature engages with and shapes our understanding of these multifaceted themes, the next two extend the discussion through no-holds barred interviews and poignant poetry-contributions that add depth and texture, offering fresh perspectives on culture, identity, and representation. With each turn of the page, discover the transformative power of literature in today’s globalized landscape.

The book includes the chapter:

Reclaiming Bodies and Beauty: Interrogating Eurocentric Ideals in Wide Sargasso Sea and The God of Small Things.
