Focusing on novels including Shalimar the Clown, The Reluctant Fundamentalist, The Wasted Vigil, and Burnt Shadows, the author combines aesthetic, historical, political and spiritual considerations with analyses of the popular discourses and critical discussions surrounding the novels; and scrutinises how the writers have been appropriated as authentic spokespeople by dominant political and cultural forces. Finally, she explores how, as writers of Indian and Pakistani origin, Rushdie, Hamid, Aslam and Shamsie negotiate their identities, and the tensions of being seen to act as Muslim representatives, in relation to the complex international and geopolitical context in which they write"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Pakistani fiction (English) $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a English fiction $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a American fiction $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Muslim authors $x Political and social views. 650 0 $a Islam in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85068431 650 0 $a Muslims in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh94006717 650 0 $a Islam and literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85068417 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM $x General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM $x English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh. $x English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM $x Indic. $x Indic. $2 bisacsh 600 17 $a Rushdie, Salman, $d 1947- $0 (DE-588)118873520 $2 gnd 600 17 $a Aslam, Nadeem, $d 1966- $0 (DE-588)130139815 $2 gnd 600 17 $a Hamid, Mohsin, $d 1971- $t Reluctant fundamentalist. $0 (DE-588)1042850887 $2 gnd 600 17 $a Shamsie, Kamila, $d 1973- $0 (DE-588)128767006 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Englisch. $0 (DE-588)4014777-0 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Roman. $0 (DE-588)4050479-7 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Islam. $0 (DE-588)4351633-6 $2 gnd 650 7 $a SuÌdasiaten. $0 (DE-588)4378231-0 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Muslim. $0 (DE-588)4040921-1 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Schriftsteller. $0 (DE-588)4053309-8 $2 gnd 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017023615.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C030B068F2B011E79A81643B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
