Tracing a literary lineage for works from different genres, it identifies key trends in recent South Asian American and British Asian literature by considering the favoured formal and aesthetic modes of major writers and by relating their work to different historical developments, sexual politics, the marketplace and issues of literary value.
Rethinking South Asian diasporic writing as an Atlantic phenomenon, this book boldly challenges the black-white framework that has dominated transatlantic studies and the South Asia-centrism that has dominated diaspora studies. A comprehensive and pioneering study of South Asian American and British Asian literature and film that will reorient future scholarship. Susan Koshy, Associate Professor of English and Asian American Studies, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign "Maxey's learned, comprehensive reading of South Asian diasporic writing through the lens of the transatlantic - attending to the critical balance between aesthetic modes, culture, history, and politics - enacts a crucial paradigm shift in contemporary theory by challenging many of the paradoxes of current approaches to postcolonial and Asian American studies." Professor Rocío G. Davis, City University of Hong Kong South Asian Atlantic Literature, 1970-2010 Ruth Maxey /The first major interpretation of recent South Asian diasporic writing in specifically transatlantic terms/ The book is organised around four key themes: home and nation; travel and return; racial mixing; and food and eating. Ruth Maxey offers readings of canonical and less well-known South Asian American and British Asian writers and texts and of key cinematic works. She explores the formal and thematic tendencies of the works, relating them to gender politics, the marketplace, and issues of literary value and historical change. The book engages with established debates, while intervening in new ways in transatlantic studies, postcolonial literary studies and Asian American cultural studies. Ruth Maxey is a Lecturer in Modern American Literature at the University of Nottingham. Her work has appeared in such journals as /Textual Practice/, /Journal of Commonwealth Literature/, /Kenyon Review/, /MELUS/, /Literature/Film Quarterly/, /South Asian Review/ and /Journal of the Short Story in English/. This is her first book.
