This article reviews Dipak Giri’s edited volume, Subaltern Perspectives in Indian Context: Critical Responses. Giri's book seeks inclusivity by drawing in all marginalised groups in India. The book gives space to Dalits, Tribes, women, workers, peasants, labourers, and people of many other voiceless communities. The book comprises twenty-three chapters written by scholars and academics from various parts of India and, most importantly, includes an interview conducted by the editor with the Saraswati Samman awardee, popular Dalit writer Sharankumar Limbale. The organization of the chapters is elaborate and methodical, revealing both thematic coherence and diversity in methodological approaches, thereby allowing readers to engage with subalternity from a multiplicity of critical perspectives.
