Asian American War Stories: Trauma and Healing in Contemporary Asian American Literature de Jeffrey Tyler Gibbons

Asian American War Stories: Trauma and Healing in Contemporary Asian American Literature: Routledge Research in American Literature and Culture

Autor Jeffrey Tyler Gibbons
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 oct 2022
Asian American War Stories examines contemporary Asian American literature that considers both the short-term and the long-term effects of war, trauma, and displacement on civilians, as well as the ways that individuals seek healing in the face of suffering. Through the works of contemporary writers like Chang-rae Lee, Ocean Vuong, Nora Okja Keller, Julie Otsuka, Lan Cao, and Lawson Inada, this book explores the ways that recent Asian American literature reflects the enduring consequences of America’s wars in Asia at the individual and collective levels. The book also considers the journeys that individuals take as they pursue healing of their traumatic wounds.
