Description
The Empire Writes Back was the first major theoretical account of a wide range of post-colonial texts and their relation to the larger issues of post-colonial culture. It is brilliant not only for its incisive analysis, but also for its accessibility to readers new to the field. This edition includes an additional chapter and an updated bibliography.
