About
"To my knowledge, there simply is no one else writing on questions of colonialism, gender, race, and intimacy who brings this depth and reach of historical and anthropological illumination to bear."--Nancy F. Cott, author of "Public Vows: A History of Marriage and the Nation" "This new book brings our collective agenda forward with a degree of maturity and flexibility that makes narrow academic preferences both unnecessary and misleading."--Doris Sommer, author of "Proceed with Caution, When Engaged by Minority Writing in the Americas"
