This comprehensive introduction to the work of Homi K. Bhabha, a key figure in both postcolonial and post-structuralist theory, is accessible and engaging. It places Bhabha's work in context, considers his effect on contemporary criticism, offers readings of a range of texts to illustrate his theories, and features an interview with the theorist.
