Description for Gender Nation, and the Arabic Novel: Egypt, 1892-2008
Hardcover.
From the end of the nineteenth century and into the twenty-first, Arabic novels and Egyptian fiction have experienced a rebirth as the literary landscape has become more diverse and inclusive. Writing has moved beyond the established themes in the national canon to engage with neocolonial discourses in the globalised world.

In doing so, she recovers literary voices that have been marginalised because they did not fit into the ideological blueprint of the cultural elite.
