Shifting Perspectives of Postcolonialism in Twenty-First-Century Anglophone-Arab Fiction (Hardcover)

Shifting Perspectives of Postcolonialism in 21st Century Anglophone-Arab Fiction explores the flourishing Anglophone Arab fiction after 9/11. Central to this expansion are the socio-political changes in the aftermath of the 9/11attacks, not only on the international scene, but also at the local level within the Arab/Muslim world. Paralleling this expansion is a shift from traditional postcolonial discourse toward Arab nation's internal issues. Rather than echoing the outmoded "writing back" paradigm, the Arab-Anglo writers have taken up specific social and political concerns through their writings and offer a trenchant commentary on issues of indigenous and international significance. Moving away from postcolonial political awareness, Arab-Anglo writers provide a critical perspective on some important contemporary issues facing the Arab nations like misuse of religious discourse, sectarianism, terrorism, feminism, class struggle, political rights and democracy, and the fragmentation of the Arab society.
