Reviews

'The book constitutes a timely political intervention in its call for a new approach to world literature and culture, and serves to remind us that world literature, read in this new way, 'can help us visualize modes of life and forms of relations that pose alternatives to the regime of legalized dispossession that goes under the name of globalization'.' Abdullah M. Dagamesh, Modern Language Review 'The book constitutes a timely political intervention in its call for a new approach to world literature and culture, and serves to remind us that world literature, read in this new way, 'can help us visualize modes of life and forms of relations that pose alternatives to the regime of legalized dispossession that goes under the name of globalization'.'
