Set in the tribal cultural mosaic of North East India, this book provides an interesting study on the concept of evil and its representations in literature, political theory, and social and cultural movements. It is an excellent disposition of the myths, narratives, and discourses, drawn from the tribal experiences of North East India, which also examines the possibility of overcoming the forms of evil in correlation with both the ′local′ and the ′global′ situations of war, terror, and redemption.
