Description:
This book seeks to unsettle current conversations within Arab American Studies that neglect aesthetics as a set of choices and constraints. Rather than divorce aesthetics from politics, the book sutures the two more closely together by challenging the causal relationship so often attributed to them.
Review Quotes:
This volume initiates an important and original conversation about Arab American aesthetics, particularly the relationship between politics and aesthetics in Arab American writing and cultural productions. It is sure to make a significant impact in Arab American Studies.
