Darjeeling Reconsidered - Bog

Offering a timely challenge to popular conceptions of Darjeeling, the 'queen of the hills', this collection of essays provocatively rethinks Darjeeling's place in the postcolonial imagination. Combining the best of the social sciences and humanities, Darjeeling Reconsidered sheds fresh light on the region's past and offers critical insight into the issues facing its people today. Doing so, it frames Darjeeling as a crucial site for South Asian and PostcolonialStudies.
