"Indian Writing in English and the Global Literary Market delves into the influences
and pressures of the marketplace on this genre, contending that it has been both a
gatekeeper and a significant force in shaping the production and consumption of this
literature. As well as providing case studies of selected contemporary Indian novels
in English and comparing how diasporic authors fare compared to authors within India,
this volume also provides theoretical insights into the postcolonial framework in
which the global literary marketplace is embedded, and comments on the exoticization
and marketing strategies adopted as a result"
