At Home in the World: Cosmopolitanism Now - Convergences: Inventories of the Present
Timothy Brennan
This passionate book is a bracing critique of the critical self-indulgence that calls itself cosmopolitanism. Brennan traces his subject from Orwell to Kristeva, from “third world” writing to the Nobel Prize. A critical call to arms, the book strips the false and heedless from the new cosmopolitanism in order to revitalize the idea.
