Dangaroo Press, 1993, Softcover, Book Condition: As New, Dust Jacket Condition: No, First
Concerned with the literatures of Australia, Canada, and the West Indies. Power relationships, British Imperialism and strains of resistance are examined in the works of writers that include Patrick White, Randolph Stow, V. S. Naipaul and Margaret Atwood. From cover: "Post-colonial literary texts in themselves, in their subversive and restitutive powers, are thus shown to be 'decolonising fictions'; but the book argues that the contexts within which these fictions have usually been placed also needs to be examined. The critical and theoretical traditions which relegate these literatures to the margin or periphery also need decolonising." Size: Octavo (standard book size). Text body is clean, and free from previous owner annotation, underlining and highlighting. Binding is tight, covers and spine fully intact. All edges clean, neat and free of foxing. Multiple copies available this title. Quantity Available: 7. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram. Category: Essays & Literary Criticism; ISBN: 1871049857. ISBN/EAN: 9781871049855.
