Works about this Work

Dymphna Cusack as a Precursor of Commonwealth Literature Ken L. Goodwin , 2004 single work criticism
— Appears in: Kunapipi , vol. 26 no. 2 2004; (p. 122-135)
Goodwin notes that in her novel The Sun in Exile (1955), Cusack deals with the general question of colonialism and anticipates virtually all the key issues in the decolonisation debate. He argues that 'a persuasive case may be made that...Dymphna Cusack was a prophet, precursor, early-warning system, even unacknowledged legislator of the many concerns of what later called itself postcolonial theory.'
