This collection of essays represents a new departure for, and a
potentially (re)defining moment in, literary Jewish Studies. It is
the first volume to bring together 28 chapters covering a wide
range of American, British, South African, Canadian and Australian
Jewish fiction.The volume is divided into 3 parts American Jewish
Fiction; British Jewish Fiction; and International and
Transnational Anglophone Jewish Fiction but many of the essays
cross over these boundaries and speak to each other implicitly, as
well as, on occasion, explicitly. Extending and redefining the
canon of modern Jewish fiction, the volume juxtaposes major authors
with more marginal figures, revising and recuperating individual
reputations, rediscovering forgotten and discovering new work, and
in the process remapping the whole terrain. This volume opens
windows onto vistas that previously had been obscured and opens
doors for the next generation of studies that could not proceed
without a wide-ranging, visionary empiricism grounding their work.
