Reviews

In Speaking Politically, Eleni Philippou develops a style of reading in dialogue with Adorno that reveals subtle but powerful political energies at work in the novels by Coetzee, Marquez, Karapanou and Ondaatje that are her focus. What's more, her argument reaches beyond those authors, for it offers new ways of bringing texts together in a world literary context, as well as a masterclass in astute interpretation. This is a deeply felt and crisply written book that anyone interested in world and postcolonial literary studies should read. Matthew Reynolds, Professor of English and Comparative Criticism, University of Oxford.
