The focus of this volume is cultural fictions: texts written from the perspective of the edge. The author examines the formations of narratives of identity in contemporary "borderline" fictions and films. Organized around the themes of memory, tradition and "belonging", the book proposes the space of "migrant" writing - an emerging third space - as one that challenges fixed assumptions about identity.
The work of migrant and marginalized groups located at the boundaries of nations, cultures, classes, ethnicities, sexualities, and genders is explored through the themes of memory, tradition, and "belonging." The book proposes the space of "migrant" writing as one that challenges fixed assumptions about identity. The cross-cultural range -- including texts from British, Caribbean, Chinese-American, Indo-Caribbean, Canadian, Cuban, and Indian writers; the original discussion of authors such as Maxine Hong Kingston, Gloria Anzaldua, Amy Tan, Gish Jen, Hanif Kureishi, and Chang-rae Lee; and engagement with the work of theorists including Bakhtin, Freud, Lyotard, de Certeau, Deleuze, and Guattari, produces a significant contribution to the broadening definitions of ethnicity and the "postcolonial." Works explored include Jasmine, Borderlands, The Joy Luck Club, The Wedding Banquet, Dreaming in Cuban, My Year of Meat, Buddha of Suburbia, and East is East.
