Abstract

This essay revisits Bart Moore-Gilbert’s monograph Hanif Kureishi first published in 2001. It focuses on how Moore-Gilbert’s previous engagement with discourses of imperialism, alongside his immersion in complex, precise, contemporary cultural histories productively informed his study of Kureishi’s work. It concludes with an exploration of how his work on Kureishi anticipates Moore-Gilbert’s subsequent influential theorizing of postcolonial life-writing.
