Biography
My research interests broadly fall within cultural studies, postcolonial theory, childhood studies and feminist theory. I am particularly interested in the representation of girlhood from an ethnographic and literary anthropological perspective. My doctoral study researches the genre of the postcolonial bildungsroman in South Asia, and representations and narratives of girlhood, in novels and memoirs. I'm interested in the field of ethnography and human geography and wish to focus on the child reader and archives of girlhood in contemporary India in the future.
My PhD is fully-funded by the AHRC SWW-DTP, and I am also enrolled at the University of Exeter. Previously, I studied BA and MA in English Literature from Jadavpur University, India.
