Summary

"The essays in this volume are well-written, powerfully argued, and provocative critical introductions to issues such as nation and national languages and heteroglossia and interlingualism. With its focus on multilingualism in the U.S., the Caribbean, India, and Ireland, the volume is essential reading for those interested in the remapping of World Literature."--Jose David Saldivar, University of California, Santa Cruz
