Government Confronts Culture

"Fiction writing from the old British Commonwealth once took second place to the literature of England and the United States, but this is no longer the case. Writers from around the globe - Africa, Canada, Australia, India, Pakistan, New Zealand, and the Caribbean - have recorded their encounters with colonialism from its beginning to its collapse. The result is an impressive body of work that internationalizes literature in English."--BOOK JACKET. "Colonial and Postcolonial Fiction: An Anthology draws from this great common wealth of writing, offering 35 selections by major writers. The works included reflect both indigenous and settler cultures, and extend from the nineteenth century to the contemporary era."--BOOK JACKET.
