Multiple constructions of India, as homeland, have been central to the shaping of Indo-Guyanese identity. An imagined India has continually woven into the Indo-Guyanese consciousness a rich, elevating perception of self. In Mother India's Shadow over El Dorado, Clem Seecharan reconstructs the circumstances surrounding the development of Indo-Guyanese nationalism.
