Since the work of Edward Said first ap¬
peared, countless studies have shown
the ways in which Western writers
—
some¬
times unwittingly
—
participate in the oversim¬
plified East/West dichotomy of Orientalism.
Yet no study has considered how writers from
the so-called Orient approach this idea. A wide-
ranging survey of the vast and diverse world of
Anglophone Arab literature, Immigrant Narra¬
tives examines the complex ways in which Arab
émigrés
contend with, resist, and participate in
the problems of Orientalism.
Hassans account begins in the early twen¬
tieth century, as he considers the pioneering
Lebanese American writers, Ameen Rihani and
Kahlil Gibran. The former s seminal novel, The
Book ofKhalid sought to fuse Arabic and Euro¬
pean literary traditions in search of a civiliza-
tional synthesis, whereas the latter found suc¬
cess by mixing Hindu, Christian, mystical, and
English Romantic ideas into a popular spiritual¬
ism. Hassan then considers Arab immigrant
life-writing, ranging from autobiographies by
George Haddad and Abraham Rihbany to
memoirs of exile by the Egyptian-born Leila
Ahmed and Palestinian refugees like Fawaz
Tur¬
ki
and Edward Said. Hassan considers issues of
representation in looking to how Arab immi¬
grant writers like Ramzi
Salti
and Rabih Alam-
eddine use homosexuality to reflect on Arab
typecasting. Ahdaf Soueif
s
fiction reflects her
growing awareness of the politics of reception
of Anglophone Arab women writers while Leila
Aboulela s fiction, inspired by an immigrant Is¬
lamic perspective, depicts the predicament of the
Muslim minority in Britain.
Drawing upon
postcolonial,
translation,
and minority discourse theory, Immigrant Nar¬
ratives investigates how key writers have de¬
scribed their immigrant experiences, acting as
mediators and interpreters between cultures,
and how they have forged new identities in
their adopted countries.
