Book Synopsis Salman Rushdie and Indian Historiography by : Nicole Weickgenannt Thiara
Book excerpt: Paying particular attention to the representation of women and to gendered notions of the nation, this book examines for the first time the marked parallels between Rushdie's critique of the Nehruvian legacy and the most significant recent trends in Indian historiography, especially the feminist and subalternist movements.
