Nagaland as Utopia: A Study of Easterine Kire's Kelhoukevira

Easterine Kire, a prolific writer from Nagaland, has recorded the pensive narratives of her people in her writings. Her works deal with the culture and tradition of her tribal people who are the very fabrics of Nagaland. She is an active writer struggling for pulling her community off from a deep fathom of dejection. Her writings, culled from oral traditions, are a compendium of the Naga community and their struggles against the British and the Indian government, ethnic and psychological conflicts, language barriers and the feeling of being alien to the Non-Nagas. Kelhoukevira talks about the land and people and how they are connected with nature.
