    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This book investigates the intersection of Indian society, the encoding of post-millennial modernity and ‘ways of seeing’ through the medium of Indian graphic narratives. If seeing in Indian cultures is a mode of knowing then what might we decode and know from the Indian graphic narratives examined here? The book posits that the ‘seeing’ of post-millennial Indian graphic narratives revolves around a visuality of the inauspicious, complemented by narratives of the same. Examining both form and content across nine Indian, post-millennial graphic narratives, this book will appeal to those working in South Asian visual studies, cultural studies and comics-graphic novel studies more broadly.

    Details how post-millennial Indian graphic narratives can be read as a unique form; their evolution, narratives, and aesthetic are examined in detail

    Serves as a much-needed resource for post-millennial Indian graphic narratives, offering close analyses of their content and form grounded in Comics Studies and Indian Cultural Studies approaches

    Brings together critical analysis and close visual readings, resulting in nuanced cultural interpretation and elucidation
