dc.description.abstract	Dennis Walder’s Postcolonial Nostalgias (2011) demonstrates coherent scholarship based on a critique of representation. It delves into the twilight zone identified by E.J. Hobsbawm as existing between history and memory in the finale of The age of empire (1989), from which Walder gleans uncertainty, obscurity and fuzziness. Penetrating this uncertainty involves identifying the sources of nostalgia in that hiatus between history and memory.	en
