Abstract
This essay offers a reflection on the interstices between words, silences, the unutterable, and the imaginary in Khal Torabully and Marina Carter’s ground-breaking work, Coolitude: An Anthology of the Indian Labour Diaspora. Further, this essay ponders how these silent spaces relate to the archives, and points to how the act of re-voicing or reclaiming the ‘coolie’ might be envisioned through relational and/or paradoxical spaces.
