The Non-National in Contemporary American Literature: Ethnic Women Writers and Problematic Belongings (American Literature Readings in the 21st Century) - 9781137502865

In this wide-ranging study, Gomma examines contemporary migrant narratives by Arab-American, Chicana, Indian-American, Pakistani-American, and Cuban-American women writers. Concepts such as national consciousness, time, space, and belonging are scrutinized through the "non-national" experience, unsettling notions of a unified America.
