Rebati: Speaking in Tongues

This volume of translations of the Odia short story "Rebati" is a landmark event. In its very conception, this look captures the spirit of Goethe's original vision of " World Literature," which he thought would grow out of vital cross cultural conversations inspired by translation of literary works. Publications like this invite focused comparative interpretations, and Fakir Mohan Senapati's radical vision from the margins of the colonial world is perfectly suitable for such interpretive work.
