Paradises Lost: A Portrait of the Precolony in Abdulrazak Gurnah's Paradise€* The Other Diaspora in Abdulrazak Gurnah's Admiring Silence and By the Sea * Situational Identities: Exiled Selves in Abdulrazak Gurnah's Pilgrims Way and Memory of Departure€*€"Men With Civilizations But Without Countries": Afro-Indians at History's End * Revisiting Nurrudin Farah's From a Crooked Rib * A Typology of Political Islam: Religion and the State in Nuruddin Farah's Variations on the Theme of the African Dictatorship Trilogy€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€.

Islam and the Eastern African Novel offers an idiosyncratic perspective on the sub-Saharan African novel. Mirmotahari argues that Islam is not an incidental factor in Gurnah and Farah's novels, but a central organising presence that generates new conceptual questions and demands new critical frameworks with which to approach categories like nationhood, race and racial paradigms in Africa, diaspora, immigration, and Africa's multiple colonial pasts.

520 $a Islam and the Eastern African Novel offers an idiosyncratic perspective on the sub-Saharan African novel. Mirmotahari argues that Islam is not an incidental factor in Gurnah and Farah's novels, but a central organising presence that generates new conceptual questions and demands new critical frameworks with which to approach categories like nationhood, race and racial paradigms in Africa, diaspora, immigration, and Africa's multiple colonial pasts.
520 $a "Islam in the Eastern African Novel engages the novels of three important eastern African novelists--Nuruddin Farah, Abdulrazak Gurnah, and M.G. Vassanji--by centering Islam as an interpretive lens and critical framework. Mirmotahari argues that recognizing the centrality of Islam in the fictional works of these three novelists has important consequences for the theoretical and conceptual conversations that characterize the study of African literature. The overdue and sustained attention to Islam in these works complicates the narrative of coloniality, the nature of the nation and the nation-state, the experience of diaspora and exile, the meaning of indigenaity, and even the form and history of the novel itself"-- $c Provided by publisher.
