The book explores the interplay between personal narratives and national stories during the decolonization process, emphasizing the autobiographies of nationalist leaders.

Through this lens, the autobiographies are presented as significant cultural artifacts that contribute to the understanding of identity and nationhood in post-colonial settings.

An exploration of the intersection of colonialism and homosexuality in fiction and travel writing from Robinson Crusoe to the present, this volume brings together two dynamic fields of academic inquiry: colonial discourse analysis, which considers literary texts as expressions of colonial power; and queer theory, which interrogates the representation, enforcement, and subversions of sexualities in literature and culture. These writers reexamine the work of Kipling, Conrad, Forster, Lessing, and others, ranging from male adventure stories to postcolonial novels. This volume will provoke and inform readers concerned with gender and sexuality, colonial history and literature, or with any of the works and authors revisited--and reexperienced--here.

Focusing on the creation of a masculine British identity, this analysis explores Maugham's work through the lenses of postcolonial, gender, and cultural theory. It highlights Maugham's negotiation between his private homosexual identity and his public persona as a heterosexual writer. The study reveals how Maugham's control of language serves to affirm his public image while contrasting it with the fluidity of language linked to his private life. Ultimately, it argues that Maugham's narratives, despite their exotic settings, reflect a deeper struggle over masculine identity.
