Summary: Splendid collection of Asia/Pacific writers on the Rim
Comment: This is a splendid mongrel collection of Asia/Pacific writers brimming up with creativity and polemic on the Pacific Rim. It is unusual in the range and diversity of writers and genres, but there is much to value here, especially from the lesser known postcolonial English sites of Singapore (Arthur Yap), Malaysia and US (Shirley Lim), Indonesia, with modernist grandees like Sartre, Tony Morrison (why her?), the ever-boring Vikram Seth and radiantly nasty VS Naipaul thrown in for critical measure.

In effect, SKOOB Pacifica is quietly creating an array of literary anthologies and individual texts that matter: my only hope is that they would circulate more fully in the American, Pacific, and Asian/American markets where they could be appreciated and challenged with critique and respect and so on. Onwards into the Pacific Century or whatever it is that 2000 millenium will be... in all its literary and political plenitude.
