Dear Friends,
My book, Negotiating Languages: Urdu, Hindi, and the Definition of Modern South
Asia (Columbia, 2016; Primus, 2017), is featured in a recent Q&A on the
Association for Asian Studies #AsiaNow blog. You can read it here:
http://www.asian-studies.org/asia-now/entryid/119/asianow-speaks-with-walter-hakala
Though it is a bit tacky to share this, self-quotation does happen to be one of
the major themes of the book: "I made what I thought was a sensible decision to
stop reading dictionaries as merely a means of understanding literature, and
instead focus on the dictionaries themselves as repositories of poetic
citations, anecdotes, and social history."

With best wishes,
