This book navigates discourses of violence and racism in American and Arabic literatures breaking through trans-cultural barriers and interrogating the colonial history of the Middle East and Africa. Reconstructing the socio-political image of a shattered region, this critical study challenges politics of oppression advocated by local tyrannical regimes. Besides the book aims to subvert conspiratorial narratives which justify colonization by depicting the colonial process as a historically inevitable movement of progress toward bringing civilization to the land of the barbarians.
