- Summary:
- "After Empire addresses itself to the crucial issue of identity in British society and is also a major contribution to the field of postcolonial literary scholarship. Full of sound judgement, insight, and originally, Gorra's analysis of what he terms 'the imagined community of the British Empire' will probably form the theoretical platform upon which the emerging generation of postcolonial scholars will build". -- Caryl Phillips, author of Crossing the River
