Overview
A central concern of the 38 essays is the significance and fullness of the self when it is partly also the Other. They were presented at the November 1989 symposium Literature in Asia and the Pacific Region by writers, critics, and scholars from the region and the US and Britain. The topics include Mudreero Narogin's Dalwurra, the invention of identity in Singapore poetry in English and Chinese, reading the feminism in Arthurian romances, and the somnambulist careening around the crater. Kandiah adds a new afterword to this reprint of the 1991 work (Times Academic Press). Distributed in the US by ISBS. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, ORBook Details
