They propose new literary regions defined less by nation and area than by coastlines, river basins, monsoons, currents and hydro-cosmologies. Whether thinking along water courses, below the water line, or through the fall of precipitation, \u003ci\u003eReading for Water\u003c\/i\u003e moves laterally, vertically and contrapuntally between different water-worlds and hydro-imaginaries. Addressing southern African and Caribbean texts, the collection draws on a range of elementally inclined literary approaches: critical oceanic studies, new materialisms, coastal and hydrocritical approaches, hydrocolonialism, black hydropoetics and atmospheric methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of \u003ci\u003eInterventions.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56517658149238,"sku":"9781032516318","price":47.14,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_37532786_c7336758-df49-4121-9549-3180e5a7533a.jpg?v=1762134118","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781032516318-reading-for-water","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
