Challenging the commonplace that suspends migrants between two
worlds', this study turns a refreshingly curious eye to complex
cultural relations and literary novelties wrought by Turkish
migration to Germany. At interpretive and historic crossroads
involving dialogue and storytelling, genocide and taboo, and
capital and labour in the 1990s. This book illuminates far-reaching
imaginative effects that literatures of migration can engender. In
critical conversation with Arjun Appadurai, Seyla Benhabib, Homi
Bhabha, Rey Chow, Andreas Huyssen, Dominick LaCapra, Doris Sommer,
and many others, Adelson probes history and aesthetics as
surprisingly twinned indices of national and global transformation
at the millennial turn.
