Postcoloniality and the Avant-Garde in Caribbean and Brazilian Literature
Cannibal Modernities offers for the first time a comparative exploration of Brazilian, French, and Spanish Caribbean literatures of modernism. Madureira's staggering erudition, linguistic talents, and subtle and provocative readings of many of the region's most important authors in the twentieth century provide rich dividends for the student of modernity in the Americas. - George Handley, Brigham Young University, author of Postslavery Literatures in the Americas: Family Portraits in Black and White
