" . . . a sophisticated and thoughtful study." --Leeds African Studies Bulletin

"A very impressive work . . . in the concreteness of its research documentation as well as in its theoretical scope, this study brings a truly innovative dimension to African literary scholarship, and indeed to the whole field of African studies." --Abiola Irele, Ohio State University

"The discussion reveals a combination of formidable analytical and critical strength with a refreshingly open-minded and sensible approach to his field." --Karin Barber, University of Birmingham
