Reviews

Conceptually robust, elegantly nuanced in both theoretical insights and historical scrutiny, Theatres of Independence is also a model of eloquent close reading. Post-independence India is the book's subject but Dharwadker has produced profoundly suggestive frameworks for analyzing postcolonial theatre and drama-- and their multivalent contexts!--in general. --Tejumola Olaniyan, author of Scars of Conquest / Masks of Resistance: The Invention of Cultural Identities in African, African American and Caribbean Drama
