The present anthology entitled "Exploring North-East Indian Writings in English" is a modest attempt to evaluate some prominent literary figures of North-East Indian Writings in English. It includes twenty five critical essays on some of the latest perspectives of the region by eminent scholars. The writers that have been focused are: Temsula Ao, Mamang Dai, Easterine Iralu, T. Monalisa Changkija, Nini Lungalang, Esther Syiem, Mona Zote, Kynpham Sing Nongkynrih, Robin Singh Ngangom, Desmond L. Kharmawphlang, Indira Goswami, Siddhartha Deb, Daisy Hasan, Mitra Phukan, Bhaskar Roy Barman, Anjum Hasan, Jyoti Prasad Agrawalla, etc. There are references to many other writers as well in the process of discussion. The anthology would surely serve as a valuable source book for the writers, readers, scholars, teachers and academicians who want to be fully acquainted with the works of North-East Indian Writers in English. I would feel delighted if it is used by the students in the changing canonical scenario of the twenty-first century. It will undoubtedly help them sharpen their critical understanding with its ample food for thought.
