In This Thing Called the World Debjani Ganguly theorizes the contemporary global
novel and the social and historical conditions that shaped it. Ganguly contends that
global literature coalesced into its current form in 1989, an event marked by the
convergence of three major trends: the consolidation of the information age, the
arrival of a perpetual state of global war, and the expanding focus on humanitarian-
ism. Ganguly analyzes a trove of novels from authors including Salman Rushdie,
Don DeLillo, Michael Ondaatje, and Art Spiegelman, who address wars in Iraq,
Afghanistan, and Sri Lanka, the Palestinian and Kashmiri crises, the Rwandan
genocide, and post-9/11 terrorism. These novels exist in a context in which suffer-
ing s presence in everyday life is mediated through digital images and where authors
integrate visual forms into their storytelling. In showing how the evolution of the
contemporary global novel is analogous to the European novels emergence in the
eighteenth century, when society and the development of capitalism faced similar
monumental ruptures, Ganguly provides both a theory of the contemporary mo-
ment and a reminder of the novels power.
