| Abstract
|
:
|
Drawing on Arma's frustrated, frustrating, frequently acrimonious, and explosively detailed correspondence with editorial and administrative officials at Heinemann Educational Books of London, his British publishers, the present article charts this distinguished writer's ordeal, between 1977 and 1992 , in dealing with metropolitan power. This ordeal centre on his confrontation with what he perceives to be issues of ownership, contract violation, intimidation, criminality, and corporate greed. Tacit in the resulting account is the fact of Arma's dignity, courage, and sense of justified self-worth: the 'subaltern speaks', and refuses to be subaltern.
