Review
Contemporary Black and Asian Women Playwrights is the first monograph to document and analyse the plays written by Black and Asian women in Britain. Taking a thematic approach based on Avtar Brah's concept of 'diaspora space', the volume explores how Black and Asian women playwrights theatricalize their experiences of migration, displacement, identity, racism and sexism in Britain.--Publisher description
