Why read it?

1 author picked The Adivasi Will Not Dance as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book of short stories drops us in the middle of Jharkhand in the center of India. Written by a government doctor who is also of the Santhal Adivasi community, it offers us insights into a community, a region, and an institution that are rarely found together in a book. Also, given that central India can tend to be seen as a large Hindi land mass, this book focuses sharply on the region’s original inhabitants living in today’s society.

From Venkataraghavan's list on discovering a modern India you’ve never seen.
