Postcolonial Satire: Indian Fiction and the Reimagining of Menippean Satire positions postcolonial South Asian satiric fiction in both the cutting-edge territory of political resistance writing and the ancient tradition of Menippean satire. Postcolonial Satire aims to disrupt the relationship between postcolonial literature and magic realism, by discussing the work of writers such as G. V. Desani, Aubrey Menen, Salman Rushdie, and Irwin Allan Sealy as one movement into the entirely subversive realm of satire. Indian fiction, and the fiction of other colonized cultures, can be re-construed through the lens of satire as openly critical of a broad spectrum of political and cultural issues. Employing the strengths of postcolonial theory and criticism, Postcolonial Satire expands upon the postcolonial works of these authors by analyzing them as satire, rather than magical realism with satirical elements.

This volume addresses the teaching of satire written in English over the past three hundred years. For instructors covering current satire, it suggests ways to enrich students' understanding of voice, irony, and rhetoric and to explore the questions of how to define satire and how to determine what its ultimate aims are. For instructors teaching older satire, it demonstrates ways to help students gain knowledge of historical context, medium, and audience, while addressing more specific literary questions of technique and form. Readers will discover ways to introduce students to authors such as Swift and Twain, to techniques such as parody and verbal irony, and to the difficult subject of satire's offensiveness and elitism. This volume also helps teachers of a wide variety of courses, from composition to gateway courses and surveys, think about how to use modern satire in conceiving and structuring them.

This book is a literary journey through Salman Rushdie’s cross-pollinated gardens, showing that the metaphor of reading as a quest is essential to Rushdie’s writing. It invites scholars and students interested in postcolonialism, postmodernism, transculturalism and the global novel to explore the many facets of Rushdie’s novels and collections of essays. The journey starts from Rushdie’s sorcery with language, and it continues with his appraisal of Joyce’s legacy. The reader will also find an analysis of the dark season of the fatwa, as well as the lush sensuality of the body and aestheticized Eros in The Moor’s Last Sigh, The Ground Beneath Her Feet, Fury, Shalimar the Clown and The Enchantress of Florence. The book further explores the liquid bridges, the postmodernist twist and postcolonial satire in Rushdie’s fiction. After providing a sense of Rushdie’s novel of “disorientation” and New York, the book finishes by exploring Rushdie’s Quichotte, published in 2019, an epitome of the global novel that revisits and “translates” Cervantes’s Don Quijote de la Mancha for readers addicted to TV and the Internet.
