Research Discipline/Bio

Among my interests is to explore African and diasporic African fiction, not as part of a subfield of minority literature whose existence is willingly accommodated by western institutions, but as a corpus that transcends the domination of western epistemologies. Specifically, I try to dig into twentieth and twenty-first century novels from Africa and diasporic African localities and engage the cultural, material, and textual dimensions of these African and diasporic texts. The goal is to reimagine some pedagogy that appropriately teaches the principles of literariness and cognitive artefacts contained in these texts.
