About the Authors
Reviews
"This vivid ethnography lifts the veil on a community that has been marginalised and invisibilized but whose labor and contributions are central to make sense of SL's global recognition as a leading tea exporter that has contributed greatly to the country's economic growth and history as a post-colonial state in SA. "—Lekh

Endorsements
"Using compelling stories, impressive fieldwork, and thorough archival research, Mythri Jegathesan explores the desires of contemporary plantation workers and their efforts to pursue social and economic dignity."—Caitrin Lynch, author of Juki Girls, Good Girls: Gender and Cultural Politics in Sri Lanka's Global Garment Industry
"Beautiful, brutal, powerful and poignant, Tea and Solidarity must be read by anyone who is concerned with the contemporary conditions of quotidian slow violence. Mythri Jegathesan's extraordinary book blends historical materials with ethnography to craft stories around those whose lives and deaths evade the usual record."—Geeta Patel, author of Risky Bodies and Techno-Intimacy
