"Mumbo Jumbo" è il terzo romanzo di Ishmael Reed, uno dei nomi di punta della cosiddetta “narrativa postcoloniale”; ambientato negli anni Venti, da una parte è una feroce satira della satira cultura Wasp americana, dall’altra è un omaggio a quanto c’è di africano nella cultura Usa. Anzi, si può affermare che Reed è meno interessato alla decostruzione postmodernista, e molto di più a un’operazione letteraria di “mappatura” della cultura afroamericana.
