This handbook is a meticulously compiled volume on forty-one Indian English plays written by thirty-three Indian playwrights. Each chapter offers a critical analysis of one play written by a distinguished dramatist. The plays chosen span from the ancient classical Sanskrit period to the contemporary era. The volume is divided into four thematic sections and provides a panoramic view of Indian drama in English. It begins with two substantial introductory essays: one on the history and diverse aspects of Indian drama, and another general introduction to the book. This compilation is a pioneering and exhaustive volume solely devoted to Indian drama in English. Its encyclopaedic coverage, scholarly rigour, analytical precision, and eclectic viewpoints make it an essential addition to university libraries and academic repositories for students, research scholars, educators, faculty members, dramaturgs, and general drama enthusiasts.
