      abstract = {This collection offers an essential, structured survey of  contemporary fictions of South Asia in English, and  includes specially commissioned chapters on each of the  national traditions of the region. It covers less well  known writings from Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh as  well as the more firmly established canon of contemporary  Indian literature, and features chapters on important new  and emergent forms such as the graphic novel, genre fiction  and the short story. It also contextualizes some key  'transformative' aspects of recent fiction such as border  and diaspora identities; new middle-class narratives and  popular genres; and literary response to terror and  conflict. Edited and designed with researchers and students  in mind, the book updates existing criticism and represents  a readable guide to a dynamic, rapidly changing area of  global literature.},
