1 "Africa and Australia" Revisited" Reading Kate Grenville's Joan Makes History Kwaku Larbi Korang , 2003 single work criticism
— Appears in: Antipodes , June vol. 17 no. 1 2003; (p. 5-12) Lighting Dark Places : Essays on Kate Grenville 2010; (p. 73-92) Korang engages with Grenville's novel Joan Makes History from the perspective of his 'reading self', that is 'African, male, non-white and non-Australian'. Through this experience, he discovers that 'against the ironic necessity of accepting that each time we travel we discover ourselves only, we must posit the freedom to make the disclaimer, postcolonially, that in our worldly encounters we are enjoined to discover in ourselves other selves.'
