LITERARY CRITICISM · CULTURAL STUDIES
Gauthier’s 9/11 Fiction, Empathy, and Otherness makes a strong case for the cultural relevance of fiction
within contemporary culture by examining an array of novels that address the 9/11 terrorist attacks—
including texts that have not been discussed much by literary critics—and focusing on the ways in which
they explore and reveal both the potential of empathy as a pathway toward reaching a cosmopolitan ideal
and all the obstructions that limit such possibilities. The book is timely in that it actively participates in and
contributes to current scholarly critical debates surrounding both empathy and cosmopolitanism.”
MAGALI CORNIER MICHAEL. Duquesne University
Tim Gauthier s brilliant exploration of the possibilities and pitfalls of empathy illuminates both 9/11
fiction’s encounter with otherness and the terrorist attacks polarizing but also unifying potential. Combining
theoretical sophistication with fresh and thoughtful analysis, 9/11 Fiction, Empathy, and Otherness is a
must-read for anyone who wants to understand the role of empathy and cosmopolitan engagement in the
fiction that emerged after those traumatic events.” SONIA BAELO-ALLUÉ. University of Zaragoza
None of the currently available critical literature on 9/11 fiction can match Tim Gauthier’s combination of
theoretical sophistication and analytical rigor. His exciting study furnishes new readings of the established
canon of 9/11 texts, as well as provides ingenious encounters with less familiar texts, such as graphic novels
and fiction from France. Gauthier s study is now the place to begin for students and others interested in
getting to grips with this body of work.” ROBERT SPENCER. University of Manchester
9/11 Fiction, Empathy, and Otherness analyzes recent works of fiction whose principal subject is the attacks
of September 11, 2001. These readings question and assess the validity and potential effectiveness of both
the subsequent calls for a cosmopolitan outlook and the related, but no less significant, emphasis now
placed on empathy. This study examines the proliferation of us” and them” narratives after 9/11 and
the degree to which calls for greater empathy and a renewed emphasis on cosmopolitan values served to
counterbalance an apparent movement toward increased polarization, encapsulated in the oft-mentioned
“clash of civilizations.” Whether it is the challenge of connecting with the inhabitants of a traumatized
city, or with a hyperpower experiencing its own vulnerability for the first time, or even with the terrorist who
seeks to commit violent acts, these novels afford us the means of examining the complex dynamics (local
and global) involved in any exhibition of fellow-feeling for the other and the ever-present potential failure
of that engagement.
TIM GAUTHIER is director of interdisciplinary studies at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
