| About Book |
A compilation comprising the most incisive, original
and evocative voices to come out of Karnataka in the
last two decades.
In Srigannada—‘the wealth that is Kannada’—eminent
writer Vivek Shanbhag has brought together essays,
fiction and poetry that best represent the last two
decades of literature in this language, lush with meaning
and nuance.
Significantly, writers in Kannada have received
the highest number of Jnanpith Awards, and this
compilation amply demonstrates why they been
singled out time after time for that distinction. The
anthology includes established litterateurs like U.R.
Ananthamurthy, Girish Karnad and Chandrashekhar
Kambar, as well as newer writers such as Sunanda
Kadame. They have tackled a wide range of issues—
globalization, caste, displacement, reality shows—that
reflect the dramatic social and economic changes that
have taken place over the last twenty years.
Srigannada is an anthology that holds a mirror before
the diverse cultures and many societies that exist within
the contemporary Kannada world. |
