Anil Pradhan Email & Phone Number

I am a PhD Candidate and UGC-NET Senior Research Fellow at the Department of English - Centre of Advanced Study (UGC-CAS), Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India. I received my MPhil and MA in English from Jadavpur University and my BA in English from Presidency University, Kolkata. My areas of academic interest include cultural studies; queer studies, literature and films; diaspora studies and literature (with focus on South Asian queer diaspora); and Indian queer literature in English. My doctoral research mainly focuses on the intersectional politics of sexuality, home, traversal, and memory in the context of contemporary Indian North American queer diasporic and immigrant literatures and cultures. Apart from research, I also dabble in poetry occasionally. My first book of poems titled "flitting oddments" was published in 2021 by Writers Workshop, Kolkata, India.
