A valuable sourcebook of insights for the reader interested in postcolonial history and literature…. Emblematic of exilic conditions in our postmodern world.

A Kind of Absence is a unique document, the outcome of a lifetime’s probing by a keen and analytical intellect; it is at once profoundly moving and philosophical. I find myself rereading it at odd moments, being challenged by the issues it raises, trying (in da Veiga Coutinho’s own words) "to make clear in my own mind some issues in Goan history." |
