Eastern Figures - Orient and Empire in British Writing
Douglas Kerr
Examines British writing about the East - centred on India but radiating as far as Egypt and the Pacific - in the colonial and postcolonial period. This book takes as its subject 'the East' that was real to the British imagination, largely the creation of writers who described and told stories about it.
