Review
Wilson Harris argues that society is approaching a new horizon of sensibility with the ability to transform claustrophobic ritual through the use of cross-cultural imagination. ... The Womb of Space to which the title refers is the creative imagination which cuts across all cultures and gives rise to a significant and illuminating dialogue. ... Harris has written an insightful and thought-provoking challenge to the intellectual stratification that tends to pervade literary and comparative scholarship which warrants consideration by those interested in imaginative literature, Afro-American, Caribbean, Commonwealth, and Third World studies, and anyone interested in cross-cultural analysis, intellectual and cultural history.African Literature Association Bulletin
