[...] Her essays examine a diverse array of texts, prinicipally by writers from Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the Caribbean and India. Issues of migration, diaspora and race sit, often uneasily, alongside nation-building, masculinist settler myths and imperialist regimes in the postcolonial environments of these works. Many of Jones essays concern themselves with physical location and mapping as well as with imaginative territories inhabited by writers and readers.'
