Authored by Ahdaf Soueif, Hisham Matar, Karim Alrawi, Youssef Rakha, Yasmine El Rashidi, Omar Rober Hamilton, Saleem Haddad, and Nada Awar Jarrar, these works intricately portray the Arab world, focusing on the lives of ordinary and minority individuals, as well as the revolutionary transformations of their respective nations. What sets this volume apart is its unique approach to linguistic experimentation, reminiscent of Deleuze and Guattari's concept of \"deterritorialization.\" However, these contemporary Anglo-Arab novelists have crafted their own distinctive method, employing metaphor and incorporating contemporary modes of protest, such as popular slogans, tweets, and chants, to enact the minor practice of linguistic deterritorialization. By challenging the conventions of minor literature, these authors bring forth the experiences of officially silenced voices, highlighting the importance of subverting dominant narratives and amplifying the voices of marginalized communities. This thought-provoking exploration of literature and politics offers a profound understanding of the complexities of the Arab world and its ongoing struggle for social and political change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 393g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031279034\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2023\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abida Younas","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44307615908090,"sku":"9783031279034","price":91.62,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_16b2fb74-f70c-4261-b191-271ab1f76a24.jpg?v=1688110465","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/postarab-spring-narratives-a-minor-literature-in-the-making-9783031279034","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
