Like Toni Morrison, Michelle Cliff attempts a kind of “literary archaeology” in her writing; she is concerned, in other words, with discovering if not “what really happened,” then, at least, what might have happened (See Paul Gilroy: The Black Atlantic). Admitting she is “attracted to places where things are buried,” Cliff pays heed to not only the historically visible and vocal, but to the absences and silences of history as well (The Land 95). Discarded and buried shards are recovered from the “midden” of official history, and, through imagination, are pieced together into narrative.

Though her first two novels (Abeng and No Telephone To Heaven) are to some extent autobiographical, Cliff not only tells her own personal history, but she also imaginatively retells the collective history of her people.

Спасибо. Колониальный гугл не показывает мне украинские сайты по этому запросу.

А гугл этот сайт вообще не очень любит. Я как-то случайно на него наткнулась и держу в закладках, там порой удается найти такие вещи, которых больше нигде нет
