Introduces
postcolonial
literary studies through close readings of a wide range
of fiction and poetry
This guide places the literary works themselves at the centre of its discussions,
examining how writers from Africa, Australasia, the Caribbean, Canada, Ireland
and South Asia have engaged with the challenges that beset
postcolonial
societies. Dave Gunning discusses many of the most-studied works of
postcolonial
literature, from Chinua Achebe s Things Fall Apart to Salman
Rushdie s The Satanic Verses, as well as works by more recent writers like
Chris Abani, Tahmima
Änam
and Shani Mootoo. Each chapter explores a key
theme through drawing together works from various times and places. The
book concludes with an extensive guide to further reading and tips on how to
write about
postcolonial
literature successfully.
