Culture Writing

Culture Writing argues that the period of decolonization witnessed dynamic exchanges between writers and anthropologists on both sides of the Atlantic. Watson analyzes writers who engaged professionally with anthropology-Barbara Pym, Ursula Le Guin, Saul Bellow, Edouard Glissant-and anthropologists who adopted literary forms-Laura Bohannan, Michel Leiris, and Claude Levi-Strauss.
