      abstract = {This book analyzes precarious conditions and their  manifestations in recent South Asian literature in English.  Themes of disability, rural-urban division, caste,  terrorism, poverty, gender, necropolitics, and uneven  globalization are discussed in this book by established and  emerging international scholars. Drawing their arguments  from literary works rooted in the neoliberal period, the  chapters show how the extractive ideology of neoliberalism  invades the cultural, political, economic, and social  spheres of postcolonial South Asia. The book explores  different forms of "precarity" to investigate the  vulnerable and insecure life conditions embodied in the  everyday life of South Asia, enabling the reader to see  through the rhetoric of  "rising Asia". Om Prakash Dwivedi  is Associate Professor of English Literature and Head of  the School of Liberal Arts at Bennett University, India. He  is the co-author of Re-Orientalism and Indian Writing in  English (Palgrave Macmillan, 2014).},
