Episode Synopsis

Professor Radhika Govindrajan (University of Washington) discusses her award winning book, Animal Intimacies: Interspecies relatedness in India’s Central Himalayas (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2018) with Renée Manderville, Archisman Chaudhuri, and Philip Gooding (all IOWC). Animal Intimacies explores what ­it means to live and die in relation to other animals, alongside the intimate—and intense—moments of care, kinship, violence, politics, indifference, and desire that occur between human and non-human animals.
