Palimpsestic Memory The Holocaust and Colonialism in French and Francophone Fiction and Film

" - a very impressive contribution to discussions of memory in relation to the Holocaust and colonialism in French and Francophone contexts. It is original, erudite, theoretically highly sophisticated and likely to be of immense value in developing debates in the field. It is also very well-written: eloquent and subtle in its expression of and contribution to the theoretical complexities of memory studies." * Ursula Tidd, University of Manchester "In my view this book is an outstanding piece of academic scholarship. It is rich, dense and draws on a wealth of literary and filmic texts and theory - I think it has ground-breaking potential." * Enda McCaffrey, Nottingham Trent University
