Cannibal Modernities: Postcoloniality and the Avant-Garde in Caribbean and Brazilian Literature - New World Studies
Luis Madureira
With inclusion of Brazil in a comparative study of literary texts and their engagement with Western modernity, this study shows how the ""peripheral"" replications of modernity in contemporary Caribbean and Latin American texts differ crucially from their European models, and addresses issues that many post colonial theorists have struggled with.
