In this conversation with Nidhi Dugar Kundalia, the author of White as Milk and Rice published by Penguin India, Laxmi tries to navigate through the terrains of literary fiction and delves deeper into Nidhi's work with stories from six spaces that have seen generations of indigenous communities come and go. Questioning the idea of marginality, ethnographic research, anthropological voyeurism, and representation, this conversation is defined by my personal and professional experiences of the author. Bonus: catch Nidhi reading an excerpt from her book!
