From Gillian Beer's reading of Virginia Woolf, Rachel Bowlby's cultural history of \u003cem\u003eUncle Tom's Cabin\u003c\/em\u003e and Francis Mulhern's study of Leaviste's 'English ethics'; to Doris Sommer's study of the 'magical realism' of Latin American fiction and Sneja Gunew's analysis of Australian writing, \u003cem\u003eNation and Narration\u003c\/em\u003e is a celebration of the fact that English is no longer an English national consciousness, which is \u003cem\u003enot\u003c\/em\u003e nationalist, but is the only thing that will give us an international dimension.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Homi K.
