The Golden Cage

• About the book

Although work on the literature and culture of African nations has increased in recent years, relatively little attention has been given to Lusophone (Portuguese) Africa in contemporary literary studies and it is this neglect that this work primarily addresses. Presenting a solid examination of Lusophone African works from a critical, cultural-theoretical vantage point, this work carries out a painstaking and scholarly examination of the various literatures and presents a detailed discussion of the key writers writers from Angola and Mozambique.
