Description:

Tracing a genealogy of colonial discourse, Suleri focuses onparadigmatic moments in the multiple stories generated by theBritish colonization of the Indian subcontinent. Both theliterature of imperialism and its postcolonial aftermath emergehere as a series of guilty transactions between two cultures thatare equally evasive and uncertain of their own authority."A dense, witty, and richly allusive book . . . an extremely valuable contribution to postcolonial cultural studies as well as to the whole area of literary criticism."—Jean Sudrann,Choice
