Description
Indian English fiction has long been intertwined with nature, reflecting both its beauty and the consequences of human exploitation. This book focuses on the ecocritical themes present in the works of two Indian writers, Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay and Ira Saxena, whose narratives deeply engage with ecological concerns. Bandyopadhyay’s Aranyak and Saxena’s Curse of Grass are analyzed through various ecocritical frameworks, including ecosophy, ecofeminism, deep ecology, and sustainability. By exploring their vivid portrayals of nature, this book seeks to highlight how these writers not only depict nature’s grandeur but also raise vital ecological issues, urging readers to reconsider humanity’s relationship with the environment.
