Recenzii

"Exploring a truly timely topic, Nicholas Robinette's analysis intercedes in a set of conversations about the relation between form and politics in 20th century Anglophone literature, with particular attention to what we now call literatures of the Global South. Scholars of postcolonial studies will greatly benefit from Robinette's insightful and important intervention." - Susan Z. Andrade, Associate Professor of English, University of Pittsburgh, USA
