520 |a "Extending the study of post-9/11 literature to include transnational perspectives, this book explores the ways in which contemporary writers from Europe as well as the USA have responded to the attacks on the World Trade Center and the ensuing "war on terror." Transatlantic Fictions of 9/11 and the War on Terror demonstrates the ways in which contemporary fiction has wrestled with anxieties about national and international security in the 21st century. Reading a wide range of novels by such writers as Amy Waldman, Michael Cunningham, Frďřic Beigbeder, Ian McEwan, Joseph O'Neill, Moshin Hamid, Jos ̌Saramago, Ricardo Menňdez Salmn̤, J.M. Coetzee, and Salman Rushdie, Susana Araj͠o explores how the rhetoric of the "war on terror" has shaped recent representations of the city and how "security" discourses circulate both transatlantically and transnationally. By focussing not only on 9/11 but on the way subsequent events such as the wars in Afghanistan and in Iraq are represented in fiction, this book demonstrates how notions of "terror" and "insecurity" have been absorbed, critiqued, or reworked by novelists from the US and Europe as well as by writers whose work focusses on the role of transatlantic relations as part of wider pressures and global configurations of power."--Bloomsbury Publishing
