The intersection of trauma, memory, and literature is a complex area of exploration. In conflict zones, the transgenerational transmission of trauma reflects ongoing struggles. The narratives from Northeast India reveal the enduring effects of ongoing conflict while showcasing the region’s overlooked cultural diversity.
This book examines the nuances of literature emerging from conflict zones, focusing on how storytelling captures and conveys traumatic memories within a necropolitical context. It includes insightful analyses of select works by prominent authors such as Temsula Ao, Mamang Dai, Janice Pariat, and Jahnavi Barua.
This book goes beyond traditional conflict studies by focusing on the emotional impact of literary representations. It serves as a platform for the voices of individuals affected by violence and advocates for a society founded on equality and justice. This book will be invaluable for literature enthusiasts, students, and researchers interested in conflict zone literature and the literary works from Northeast India.
