AB  - This textbook takes a new approach to teaching creative writing that centers the concerns of multicultural students. It focuses on the experiences of those who wish to write through their diverse identities, including ethnic, cultural, racial, national, regional, and international identity as well as gender identity, sexual preference, class position, and disability. Combining the study of culturally diverse literature with the process of writing, students are encouraged to engage with various texts and to use them to inspire their own work. Organized around a series of writing prompts and discussions of literary readings that address identity, place, perception, family, community, encounters, inheritance, and resistance, this book offers both writers and teachers a way to engage with the practice of writing from a multicultural perspective. Pauline Kaldas is Professor of English and Creative Writing at Hollins University, USA. She is author of Looking Both Ways (2017), The Time Between Places (2010), Letters from Cairo (2007), and Egyptian Compass (2006) and co-editor of two Arab American anthologies, Beyond Memory (2020) and Dinarzads Children (2009).
