Transatlantic Fictions of 9\/11 and the 'War on Terror' demonstrates the ways in which contemporary fiction has wrestled with anxieties about national and international security in the 21st century. Reading a wide range of novels by such writers as Amy Waldman, Michael Cunningham, Fr??ic Beigbeder, Ian McEwan, Joseph O'Neill, Moshin Hamid, Jos?Saramago, Ricardo Men?dez Salmón, J.M. Coetzee and Salman Rushdie, Susana Ara?o explores how the rhetoric of the 'war on terror' has shaped recent representations of the city and how ?ecurity?discourses circulate transatlantically and transnationally. By focusing not only on 9\/11 but also on the way subsequent events such as the wars in Afghanistan and in Iraq are represented in fiction, this book demonstrates how notions of ?error?and ?nsecurity?have been absorbed, reworked or critiqued in fiction. Ara?o examines to what extent transatlantic relations have reinforced or challenged new fictions of ?hite western middle class captivity.?9781472508768\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eSusana Ara?o\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eOct 22, 2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e232 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003eHardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e1472508769\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9781472508768\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50130900582705,"sku":"9781472508768","price":228.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9781472508768.jpg?v=1728595002","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9781472508768","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
