Nunes' conclusion is succinct and contains several original ideas.
Unlike most writers, she claims that human interdependence is a
fact that may have positive effects. . . . Becoming True to
Ourselves is an outstanding work of research and presents
insightful and original concerns about a topic that had not been
studied previously but is of major importance. Rocky Mountain
RevieW Becoming True to Ourselves is a penetrating exploration of
literary strategies of decolonization in the Portuguese-speaking
world. Divided into three parts, the analysis centers on an
examination of the Portuguese, Brazilian, and African colonial
experiences as viewed through the eyes of native contemporary
writers over a 100-year span. This examination enables the author
to uncover the fundamental relationship between cultural
decolonization and national identity and reveals an unusually vital
literary tradition that both reinforces and helps impel these
nation's drives toward cultural, political, and economic
independence.
