Even in this age of triumphal globalism, Africa still hangs on to a precarious existence in the margin, the zone of abysmal silence and disarticulation, stripped of agency and talk-back capability. It remains largely invisible on the map of the global village drawn by those who control the paper as well as the pencil. In an age of "travelling theories" and "travelling texts," externally generated ideas and prejudices travel with imperial ease and confidence in Africa while the "canon war" makes it extremely difficult for African texts to make it to the reading lists of European and American institutions. Related problems such as a grossly maladjusted economy with the myriad socio-economic injustices spawned by it, political instability, dictatorship, and intolerance have affected the literary and cultural scene in near apocalyptic proportions. This selection of essays addresses these and other issues from the author's perspective as an African writer, academic, social critic, and regular contributor to media discourse. Book jacket.

The essays, articles and interviews in this book offer a selection of views on African writing by African writers, such as Chinua Achebe, J.P. Clark, Gabriel Okara, Lewis Nkosi, James Ngugi, Okello Oculi, Ali A. Mazrui, Sembène Ousmane, Nadine Gordimer and Joe Kariuki. They form landmarks on the road towards the establishment of a cxritical assessment of modern African writing. The essays reveal three concers. Firstly a concern with the social and political function of literature. Then there is the debate on relationship between African literature and the traditions of English and French literature. Finally the writers are anxious to establish the uniquely African quality of African literature and the African society that literature reflects.
