Landscapes of Wilderness draws upon Narendra’s conversations, observations and ethnographic notes made during his stay with the adivasis in Abujhmad and Bastar over thirty-three years, and his deep association with his childhood village in the plains of north India. Rooted in popular adivasi narratives that are invariably indeterminate and captivating, it evokes the colloquial grandeur of adivasi folk discourse and idiom, and a nativity that is intrinsically comfortable with itself-an echo of the surrounding landscape.
