This rigorously documented collection brings together for the first time original essays by leading authorities in the field on nine contemporary Arab women novelists from Algeria, Egypt, Lebanon, and Palestine. The essays focus on texts available in English translation and explore with great theoretical sophistication the relationship of these authors' texts to contemporary phenomena of feminism, nationalism, postcolonialism, war, transnationalism, and
societal change.
