Dancing with the River (Yale Agrarian Studies Series) by Kuntala Lahiri-Dutt, Gopa Samanta Dancing with the River (Yale Agrarian Studies Series) by Kuntala Lahiri-Dutt, Gopa Samanta PDF, ePub eBook D0wnl0ad With this book Kuntala Lahiri-Dutt and Gopa Samanta offer an intimate glimpse into the microcosmic world of “hybrid landscapes.” Focusing on chars—the part-land, part-water, low-lying sandy masses that exist within the riverbeds in the floodplains of lower Bengal—the authors show how, both as real-life examples and as metaphors, chars straddle the conventional categories of land and water, and how people who live on them fluctuate between legitimacy and illegitimacy.
