The Green Book is a groundbreaking account of his creative process and emphasizes the importance of journaling for self-discovery.
The third and fittingly final volume in the series—as blue and yellow make green—is filled with the author’s stunning original artwork and images. The series started in 2022 with The Blue Book, which offered a comprehensive perspective of the epidemic, and continued in 2023 with The Yellow Book, which concentrated on overcoming adversity.
In addition to being a current work on the climate catastrophe and an intriguing social commentary on the growth of Hindutva majoritarianism in India, The Green Book offers the reader a thoughtful perspective filled with enlightening quotes from the author.
Amitava Kumar deftly addresses a range of subjects such as the interconnectedness of all living things, the complexities of Indian cultural identity, the contrast between destruction and beauty, and—most importantly—the value of literary analysis of identity, nationalism, and social concerns.
