Routledge Handbook of African Literature
«
“Carli Coetzee and Moradewun Adejunmobi curate cutting-edge scholarship in the Routledge Handbook of African Literature. Divided into seven parts, the book presents a fresh picture of the current directions in the field. The editors call this image a Kodak moment, signaling the “anticipated transience of the critical frameworks” of the Handbook. This admission quickly turns out to be modest at best, as the critical frameworks of chapters consistently forge new ways of harnessing African literature.
…(The Handbook) is a tour de force and should dominate classroom and research spaces. With straightforward language that consistently and effortlessly harnesses theory, text, and argument, the editors and authors do scholarship a world of good.”
