BRIAN
Г.
MAY argues that, contrary to
widely held assumptions of
postcolonial
liter¬
ary criticism, a distinctive subset of
postcolonial
novels significantly values and scrupulously ex¬
plores a healthy individuality. These extravagant
postcolonial
works focus less on collective social
reality than on the intimate subjectivity of their
characters- Their authors, most of whom received
some portion of a canonical western education, do
not subordinate the ambitions of their fiction to
explicit political causes so much as create a cosmo¬
politan rhetorical focus suitable to their western
-
educated, western-trained audiences.
May pursues this argument by scrutinizing
novels composed during the thirty-year
postín
de¬
pendence,
postcolonial
era of Anglophone fiction,
a period that began with the
Nigerian Chinua
Achebes Things Full Apart and that ended, many
would say, with the
Ayatollah
Khomeini s
1989
publication of the Rushdie
Fatwa.
May contends
that the
postcolonial
authors under consider¬
ation
—
Naipaul, Rushdie, Achebe, Rhys, Gordimer,
and Coetzee
—
inherited modernism and refash¬
ioned it. His account of their Avorlc demonstrates
how it reflects and transfigures modernists such
as Conrad, Eliot, Yeats, Proust, Joyce, and Beckett.
Tracing the influence of humanistic values and
charting the ethical and aesthetic significance of
individualism, May demonstrates that these works
of extravagant postcolonialism represent less a
departure from than a continuation and evolution
of modernism.
