Men's Fungible Memories

Carl Shuker’s first novel The Method Actors (2005 Shuker, R. Carl. 2005. The Method Actors, Washington: Shoemaker & Hoard. [Google Scholar]) focuses questions raised in the decline of New Zealand’s cultural nationalism during the second half of the 20th century and discusses issues significant to the larger western experience of “Generation X”, with a clear inflection of his country’s biculturalist expectations. Shuker’s personal interests and idiosyncrasies in The Method Actors extend his postcolonialist analysis towards issues of form and epistemology. This article places The Method Actors in the context of the bicultural, the postmodern and the postcolonial, exploring issues of cultural translation in particular
