Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores a number of works written in English from the Northeast region of India. It analyses the problematics of the issues of ethnicity, identity, migration, insurgency and what life means in the borderlands, as made evident in select writings which are a product of ongoing conflicts both inside and outside the region. These English-language writings are not only voices from the periphery which try to answer back to the mainstream, but are also attempts at retrospection and relooking at one’s own history.
