This volume examines the concerns of Asian American literature from
1996 to the present. This period was not only marked by civil
unrest, terror and militarization, economic depression, and
environmental abuse, but also unprecedented growth and visibility
of Asian American literature. This volume is divided into four
sections that plots the trajectories of, and tensions between,
social challenges and literary advances. Part One tracks how Asian
American literary productions of this period reckon with the
effects of structures and networks of violence. Part Two tracks
modes of intimacy - desires, loves, close friendships, romances,
sexual relations, erotic contacts - that emerge in the face of
neoimperialism, neoliberalism, and necropolitics. Part Three traces
the proliferation of genres in Asian American writing of the past
quarter century in new and in well-worn terrains. Part Four surveys
literary projects that speculate on future states of Asian America
in domestic and global contexts.
