This book initiates a dialogue between two discursive fields of study, the Anthropocene and the Subaltern Studies.

It highlights communities that bear the brunt of climate precarity and planetary crises and examines critiques of the Anthropocene discourse for grossly overlooking the subaltern communities and failing to integrate their historiography. The essays in the volume retrieve and amplify voices of subaltern communities amid planetary crises, especially in India, to set up new paradigms to engage and tackle the climate crises that confront our times.

The volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of South Asian studies, literary criticism, especially ecocriticism, and environmental studies and climate action.
