N2  - Everyday life in the far outposts of empire can be static, empty of the excitement of progress. A pervading sense of banality and boredom are, therefore, common elements of the daily experience for people living on the colonial periphery.

Prose of the World explores the global life of this narrative aesthetic, from late-colonial modernism to the present day.
