AP4-A first printing paperback book SIGNED by author (first name only) and inscribed to previous owner on the half-title page in very good condition that has some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. 9"x6", 177 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Confluences looks at the prospects for and the potential rewards of breaking down theoretical and disciplinary barriers that have tended to separate African American and postcolonial studies. John Cullen Gruesser's study emphasizes the confluences among three major theories that have emerged in literary and cultural studies in the past twenty-five years: postcolonialism, Henry Louis Gates Jr. 's Signifyin(g), and Paul Gilroy's black Atlantic. For each theory Gruesser examines one literary text that illustrates the value of theoretical model, a second text that extends the model in a significant way, and a third text that raises one or more questions about the theory. His examples are drawn from the writings of Salman Rushdie, Jean Rhys, V.S. Naipaul, Walter Mosley, Pauline Hopkins, Toni Morrison, Harry Dean, Harriet Jacobs, and Alice Walker.
