Book Description:
|
This deeply engaging, historically, and culturally informed book provides new perspectives on a wide range of writers, and at the same time provides a radically new development of many of the most pertinent issues in the field of postcolonial writing and theory. It constitutes a major new engagement between the 'postcolonial' and a conception of the literary that is richly innovative in its deployment of psychoanalytic, deconstructive, and other approaches to the text.
