Community, Faith, and Resistance

Writing Religious Resurgence in Select British Muslim Fiction

Beschreibung

This book looks at texts produced before and after 9/11 by novelists with Muslim backgrounds in Britain. It delves into the ways in which the politics of representation have changed, the conflicts that arise in these coming-of-age narratives between the demands of a liberal individualist lifestyle and those of community, family, and faith.
