Om Needle at the Bottom of the Sea

"Access Bengal's secret heart through this wondrous book. Travel deep into the forest and peek beyond the delta's edge: balancing scholarly rigor with storytelling elan, Tony Stewart's tidal tales with their fantastic cast of boundary-crossing characters shed unexpected and much-needed light on the relationship between Bengal, Islam, and the Indian Ocean world."--Ananya Jahanara Kabir, Infosys Prize winner and author, Partition's Post-Amnesias: 1947, 1971, and Modern South Asia "These subtly analyzed and beautifully translated tales represent a major accomplishment, revealing a sophisticated understanding of interreligious and intercaste relations in the register of the marvelous."--Faisal Devji, Professor of Indian History, University of Oxford
