Review: 'A great collection because it has learned from the warning call of one of the strongest voices now at full career--Werner Sollors, who in turn gracefully adopts an 'avuncular' perspective--while also avoiding the pitfalls of the overcorrection that characterizes much of what we are now seeing at conferences and in journals. The authors avoid the utopian invocations of 'hybridity' and 'fragmentation' and 'multiple selves' (including the unreflective gender thinking that often seems to underwrite it). Cultural Difference and the Literary Text keeps conflict within and between ethnic cultures in full view, and it does so not only within individual essays but in the dissent among them. The essays and their constellations are wonderfully engaging.'
