Postcolonial Poetry in English

One of the main strengths of the book is the diversity of voices it makes available through quotation, allusion and cross-reference, which in itself is a vital contribution to existing representations of the sheer wealth of postcolonial poetry in English. * The Times Higher Education Supplement *
...a gem that should be available for both undergraduate and postgraduate students in every university library...Patke's exceptional writing style and his adept handling of such a vast body of information secures it as a very useful research and teaching text. * Review Newsletter *
The first books in this series are exemplary. Newell, Patke, and Keown all achieve the difficult task of combining accessible, wide-ranging and authoritative introductions to particular areas and genres with new perspectives and fresh insights into specific texts. I found them remarkably readable and rewarding. * Lyn Innes, Professor Emerita, University of Kent *
