  • Abstract:
  • This paper explores the multifaceted reflection of the COVID-19 pandemic in Indian literature, analyzing how writers across English and regional languages have responded to an unprecedented global crisis. Drawing from poetry, fiction, essays, and digital platforms, the study identifies shifts in narrative form, thematic focus, and epistemological frameworks. It traces literary continuities with earlier catastrophes like the Bombay plague and Bengal famine, while highlighting contemporary concerns such as social inequity, digital expression, and the politicization of religion. By centering marginalized voices—migrant workers, Dalits, women—the pandemic narrative in India democratizes literary space and challenges elitist discourse. Moreover, the digital turn in literary production fosters new public spheres of resistance and healing. Indian pandemic literature thus emerges not only as a record of trauma but also as a site of ethical inquiry and imaginative renewal. It testifies to literature’s enduring capacity to document, critique, and transcend collective suffering.
