Considering translocal and transcultural writing as a global phenomenon, this book draws on multidisciplinary research, from globalisation theory to the study of narratives to urban studies, to explore a corpus of thirty-two novelsby authors such as Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Dionne Brand, Kiran Desai, and Xiaolu Guoset in a total of ninety-seven cities. Lena Mattheis examines six of the most common strategies used in contemporary urban fiction to make translocal experiences of the world narratable and turn them into relatable stories: simultaneity, palimpsests, mapping, scaling, non-places, and haunting. Combining and developing further theories, approaches and techniques from a variety of research fieldsincluding narratology, human geography, transculturality, diaspora spaces, and postcolonial perspectivesMattheis develops a set of cross-disciplinary techniques in literary urban studies. 001435012 650_0 $$aEnglish fiction$$y21st century$$xHistory and criticism. 001435012 650_0 $$aCities and towns in literature. 001435012 650_0 $$aPostcolonialism in literature. 001435012 650_6 $$aRoman anglais$$y21e siècle$$xHistoire et critique. 001435012 650_6 $$aPostcolonialisme dans la littérature. 001435012 655_7 $$aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411635 001435012 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001435012 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3030666867$$z9783030666866$$w(OCoLC)1224517851 001435012 830_0 $$aLiterary urban studies. 001435012 852__ $$bebk 001435012 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-66687-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001435012 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1435012$$pGLOBAL_SET 001435012 980__ $$aBIB 001435012 980__ $$aEBOOK 001435012 982__ $$aEbook 001435012 983__ $$aOnline 001435012 994__ $$a92$$bISE
