I. B. Tauris & Company I.B. Tauris Palestinian Literature in Exile - Short Story Study

Explore the rich cultural landscape of Palestinian writing with this essential academic study. Palestinian authors are known for producing some of the most iconic works in the Arab world, often using literature to navigate complex political and historical realities. This volume, part of the SOAS Palestine Studies series, provides the first English language analysis dedicated specifically to the Palestinian short story genre. Author Joseph Farag uses an interdisciplinary method to look at how these literary texts function politically. The book examines how cultural production acts as a form of resistance and how gender and aesthetics shape the narratives of those living in exile. This is a necessary resource for students, researchers, and readers interested in Middle Eastern studies, literary theory, and the relationship between art and history.
