The Anglophone Literary-Linguistic Continuum
Michael Andindilile in The Anglophone Literary–Linguistic Continuum: English and Indigenous Languages in African Literary Discourse interrogates Obi Wali’s (1963) prophecy that continued use of former colonial languages in the production of African literature could only lead to ‘sterility’, as African literatures can only be written in indigenous African languages. In doing so, Andindilile critically examines selected of novels of Achebe of Nigeria, Ngũgĩ of Kenya, Gordimer of South Africa and Farah of Somalia and shows that, when we pay close attention to what these authors represent about their African societies, and the way they integrate African languages, values, beliefs and cultures, we can discover what constitutes the Anglophone African literary–linguistic continuum. This continuum can be defined as variations in the literary usage of English in African literary discourse, with the language serving as the base to which writers add variations inspired by indigenous languages, beliefs, cultures and, sometimes, nation-specific experiences.

Of the nearly 5 million unsolicited manuscripts, letters, and columns received each year by newspaper editors, magazines, and literary agents around the world (estimated by a 2006 issue of Writer s Digest), less than half of one percent are even read when they reach their destination. And most of the problem lies in the lack of a coherent query letter. This book was written for any potential writer looking to effectively write and send a query letter that will grab the attention of the editor or agent to whom it is addressed.--From publisher description.
