- This 110,000-word monograph addresses the literature and literary cultures of India, Nigeria, Cuba, and the UK. The result of six years of research including archival research and fieldwork, some undertaken by a research assistant in Nigeria, this study was devised to extend research in multiple fields: literary studies, book history/publishing, postcolonial studies, contemporary literature, area studies, Latin American studies. Via postcolonial, spatial, architectural, cartographic, materialist, trauma, and gender theories, it undertakes close textual analysis of more than 30 important texts to uncover the postcolonial literary marketplace and the local literary cultures of each region.
