This book initiates a dialogue between two discursive fields of study: the Anthropocene and the Subaltern Studies.

It highlights communities that bear the brunt of climate precarity and planetary crises and examines critiques of the Anthropocene discourse for grossly overlooking the subaltern communities and failing to integrate their historiography.

This volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of South Asian studies, literary criticism, especially ecocriticism, environmental studies and climate action.
