Christian Moraru's new book on postmodernism zeroes in on postmodern representation, which the critic seizes as a literary and cultural memory receptacle - as "memorious discourse." He argues that, counter to the orthodoxies that have taken hold in postmodern studies, postmodernism is not ahistorical, without cultural memory, or politically apathetic.
