Caren Irr's survey of more than 125 novels outlines the dramatic
resurgence of the American political novel in the twenty-first
century. She explores the writings of Chris Abani, Susan Choi,
Edwidge Danticat, Junot Diaz, Dave Eggers, Jeffrey Eugenides,
Aleksandar Hemon, Hari Kunzru, Dinaw Mengestu, Norman Rush, Gary
Shteyngart, and others as they rethink stories of migration, the
Peace Corps, nationalism and neoliberalism, revolution, and the
expatriate experience. Taken together, these innovations define a
new literary form: the geopolitical novel. More cosmopolitan and
socially critical than domestic realism, the geopolitical novel
provides new ways of understanding crucial political concepts to
meet the needs of a new century.
