What happens when we cross a significant boundary? We step into an
unsettling in-between zone, where we have to abandon accepted
structures and truths. Yet this liminal zone can also open up
possibilities for inner transformation, leading to the birth of a
new sense of fellowship. Since 1994, South Africans have been
experiencing the anxieties of old structures breaking down and of
new ones being built - a process that South African authors have
been powerfully representing and questioning. Beyond the Threshold
analyzes the transformative powers of liminal states and
hybridizing processes in literature. Its authors discuss a wide
range of intriguing liminal characters, dangerous liminal
situations, and unique transformations in recent books mainly from
South Africa. These books tell the compelling stories of marginal
characters, giving their stories moral authority while exploring
their transformative possibilities.
