Against a groundswell of critiques of global English, 'Vernacular English' argues that literary studies are yet to confront the true political import of the English language in the world today. A comparative study of three centuries of English literature and media in India, this book tells the story of English in India as a tale not of imperial coercion, but of a people's language in a postcolonial democracy.
