Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The first book-length interpretation of Sudanese novelist Tayeb Salih's fiction.

Book News Annotation:

Sudanese author Tayeb Salih is one of the most celebrated writers of modern Arabic literature. In this study, Hassan (comparative literature, Illinois State U.) examines the ways in which Salih's work depicts the clashing of diverse Arab ideologies with questions of tradition, modernity, imperialism, gender, and political authority. He uses a combination of critical methodologies, including Bakhtin's theory of the novel, postcolonial theory, psychoanalysis, and Sufism.
