Caption:

Untouchable Fictions dissects the aesthetic and political crises of realism in order to chart the development of Dalit or “untouchable caste” writing. Arguing that Dalit literature responds to a failure of older literary movement to properly accommodate caste, the book situates the aesthetic maneuvers of the Dalit text in dialectical relationship with older progressive literary movements.
