The Postcolonial Intellectual: Ng’g’ wa Thiong’o in ContextOliver Lovesey examines the conundrum of the postcolonial intellectual, a central yet critically overlooked figure in the postcolonial project. He focuses on Ng’g’ wa Thiong’o within his cultural, historical, and intellectual contexts, primarily with respect to his non-fictional prose writings, including his neglected early journalism and his most recent autobiographical and theoretical work. Lovesey argues for Ng’g”s position as a major postcolonial theorist who helped establish postcolonial studies. ISBN: 9781409409007, 1409409007
