This book considers the place of the British colonial city in modernist fiction. While modernism is often linked to the cultural transformations of the Euro-American metropolis, Modernism in the Metrocolony shows how writers responded to empire's urban legacies, tracing an alternative, peripheral history of the modernist city.
