«Along the way Amanuddin presents a good deal of information about concepts of classical Asian esthetics as a way of showing the continuity between contemporary Asian writers and the classics. All this is useful and may help us move beyond not just »Eurocentrism« but also the restricted and impoverished opposite of »Eurocentrism« now being passed off as Third World literature.» (Reed Way Dasenbrock, World Literature Today)
