This book provides intimate insights into the lives of farmers in Garo Hills, North-East India. Based on a long-term ethnographic engagement, it focuses on followers of traditional Garo animism, whose land constitutes their most important resource. In response to new economic and political opportunities, as well as to changes in the ontological landscape, people continually reinterpret the multiple relationships that connect them as a community, as well as to the spirits, and the land.
