"What makes Clarkson's project truly dialogical--and what distinguishes it from a number of other analyses of contemporary South African culture and literature--is that she both reads South African culture in terms of theory but also examines and, indeed displays, what South African culture might also offer theory."-Russell Samolsky, University of California, Santa Barbara "One rarely comes across work of such intelligence and imagination. This book is beautifully written and one finds oneself forever being caught out by wonderful and unpredicted connections, turns of phrase, the ease and acuity with which insights from disparate fields are brought together and developed."-Emilios Christodoulidis, University of Glasgow
