Description
This book rethinks women's madness through a rigorous analysis of colonial paranoia. Arguing that colonialism produces a distinct cultural expression of women's madness, this book contends that it is the male characters of the novels who exhibit symptoms of colonial paranoia, as inheritors and agents of the colonial enterprise.
