ABSTRACT |
This paper stems from the tension arising from, on the one hand, the reclamation of a different identity, and on the other, from the negation of any identity as constructed traditionally. The juxtaposition of these claims of identity and difference and a parallel alliance with the refusal of stereotypical identities and standpoints turn their texts per se into counter-narratives of patriarchy and colonialism, artefacts that reject generic boundaries, and, likewise, the allocated slots provided by the multicultural models of society and culture.
