- The Mauritian Novel: Fictions of Belonging is a monograph of five self-contained but conceptually interrelated chapters, together with a long, contextual and theoretical introduction and reflective conclusion. The different chapters all grapple, in diverse ways, with the universal but ill-defined notion of ‘belonging’, as elaborated in works by six important, contemporary Mauritian writers. The monograph reflects sustained research effort, of varying intensity, over more than a decade, with particular intensity during a period of AHRC Research Fellowship-funded leave in 2012-13 and, again, during final revisions stages in 2016-17.
