Rosemary Jolly, Research in African Literatures, Vol 28, No.2. 'For scholars especially involved in examining the much contested features of South African cultural history, Nixon's book is extraordinarily important.' Jeanne M. Colleran, Modern Fiction Studies, Vol 42, No. 1 'Even the reader reasonably well acquainted with South African culture is likely to learn a good deal from Nixon's well-researched and informed discussion.' Brian Crow, African Affairs, Vol 95, No. 378. Author InformationRob Nixon is the Currie C. and Thomas A. Barron Family Professor in the Humanities and the Environment at Princeton University, USA.
