Indian Modern Dance, Feminism and Transnationalism

“This book is a notable endeavour that fills in a significant part of twentieth-century dance history, which, according to Purkayastha, has been written off. … This book is certainly an important addition not only to dance and performance studies, but also cultural and postcolonial studies, due to its interdisciplinary approach. … the book raises issues pertinent to dance today, in both contemporary and classical genres.” (Sabina Sweta Sen, Studies in Theatre and Performance, Vol. 35(3), 2015)
