9/11 Novel: Trauma, Politics and Identity

Arin Keeble

4.9/5 (21474 ratings)

Description:This is a comprehensive study of the first decade of literary representations of 9/11, moving from Art Spiegelman's In the Shadow of No Towers (2003) to Amy Waldman's The Submission (2012). It traces the way literature has dealt with an event that continues to shape world conflict and resonate prominently in the American imagination, and argues that the corpus of literary fiction discussing 9/11 is characterized by a fundamental sense of conflictedness related to the tensions between trauma or mourning and political imperatives. Additionally, this book assesses an equally divided body of criticism on the 9/11 novel and locates Hurricane Katrina as a turning point in the politicization of 9/11. The work offers in-depth analyses of texts that have historicized 9/11 and shaped the way we understand this key moment in American and world history.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
