White settlers invaded African lives on a cultural as well as a political and economic level during the colonial period. With a primary focus on Zimbabwe, the essays in this book examine art, literature, politics, and religion in settler colonies to document the struggles taking place between a redefined tradition and efforts to move toward a radically different kind of culture.
