Teaching Modern Arabic Literature in Translation

Even as Arabic literature is increasingly being translated into English, the modern Arabic literary tradition is still often treated as other - controversial, dangerous, difficult, esoteric, or exotic. This volume examines modern Arabic literature in context and introduces creative teaching methods that reveal the literature's richness, relevance, and power to anglophone students.
