A grandmother tattoos, the advent of Christianity, stories woven into fabrics, a tradition of morality, the imposition of a ‘new’ language, a history of war and conflict: all this and much more informs the writers and artists in this book. "The Many That I Am: Writings from Nagaland," curated by Anungla Zoe Longkumer, a renowned filmmaker and writer, offers a compelling collection of stories, poems, first-person narratives, and visuals that beautifully showcase the multifaceted landscape of women's writing in Nagaland.
Through the medium of English, a language adopted by the Nagas in the wake of the Church's arrival, each piece bears witness to women's profound journeys of reconnecting with their roots and navigating the complexities of the present. This anthology stands as a testament to the resilience and richness of Nagaland's cultural heritage, encapsulating the spirit of empowerment and self-discovery that echoes throughout its pages.
