Miranda Peery deposited Recall this Book 59: Pardis Dabashi on “My Uncle Napoleon” on Humanities Commons 3 years, 7 months ago
Iraj Pezeshkzad’s My Uncle Napoleon is a slapstick and at times goofy love story, but it is also in the best tradition of sly anti-imperial satire. Scholar Pardis Dabashi came to it late, but she has all the convert’s zeal as she links it to a literary tradition that’s highly theoretical, but also delightfully far-flung.
