Description

This academic study by Sheheryar Sheikh explores the connection between liberal white American trauma and the rise of hyper-conservative Islamophobia. The work examines the cultural shifts following the events of 9/11 and the call for a new literary era. Drawing on Don DeLillo's 2001 plea for American writers to create a "counternarrative," the text investigates the concept of a new "Great American Novel" pluriverse. It traces this idea back to John William de Forest's original post-Civil War definition, analyzing how fiction attempts to reclaim cultural control and rebuild the national identity through literature.
