Liminal Lives

Liminal Lives: The Struggles and Triumphs of Minorities is a tri-lingual book presented in English, Hindi, and Malayalam. It looks closely at issues of identity, marginality, and representation. The collection pulls from literature, cultural studies, history, sociology, and political thought. It examines how minority communities confront structural inequalities while expressing resilience and cultural identity. The essays sit at the crossroads of theory and lived experience. They explore themes of displacement, language politics, social justice, and daily struggles with belonging. The book’s trilingual format highlights its commitment to inclusivity, allowing different ways of knowing to exist and interact across various fields and languages. By focusing on the experiences of minority groups within local, national, and global contexts, Liminal Lives adds to important discussions about marginality, resistance, and identity issues.
