Description

Explore new perspectives on postcolonial literature with this academic study from Routledge. This book uses the framework of animism-the belief in the spiritual qualities of nonhuman matter-to analyze how trauma is represented in fiction from Nigeria and India. As postcolonial nations move further from the era of decolonization, the nature of trauma continues to evolve. This work examines how trauma is generated within increasingly precarious environments marked by resource scarcity and over-acceleration. By initiating a conversation between contemporary Nigerian and Indian literatures, the text provides a deep look at how nonhuman matter and spiritual beliefs shape the understanding of historical and modern suffering. This volume is an essential resource for scholars and students interested in literary theory, postcolonial studies, and the connection between environment and trauma. It moves beyond the single subject to offer a broader view of how literature captures the complexities of the postcolonial experience.
