Stranded at a Distance”: The Symposium on Bombay-London-New York
“Stranded at a Distance” responds to Amitava Kumar's Bombay-London-New York by asking readers to consider the elegance and nuances of the prose as well as subtlety with which Kumar interrogates current postcolonial theories of representation, hybridity, and “home.” While Kumar's work refuses the facile essentializing that characterizes so much identity theory (either in its final moves or in its attacks), it also retains something of the humannes…
