Speaking the Postcolonial Nation : Interviews with Writers from Angola and Mozambique PDF
Edited by Leite Ana Mafalda Leite, Khan Sheila Khan, Falconi Jessica Falconi, Krakowska Kamila Krakowska
Description
This volume brings together interviews on the topic of the postcolonial nation and its narrations with prominent writers from Angola and Mozambique.
The interviewees offer personal insights into the history of post-independence Angola and Mozambique and into the role of the intellectual elite in the complex processes of deconstructing colonial heritage and (re)constructing national identity in a multinational or multiethnic state.
Their testimonies provide a parallel narrative that complements the many fictional narrators found in Angolan and Mozambican novels, short stories and poems.
The authors interviewed in the book are Luandino Vieira, Ana Paula Tavares, Boaventura Cardoso, Jose Eduardo Agualusa, Ondjaki and Pepetela from Angola; and Joao Paulo Borges Coelho, Marcelo Panguana, Mia Couto, Paulina Chiziane, Ungulani Ba Ka Khosa and Luis Carlos Patraquim from Mozambique.
