Summary The leading European scholar on American literature examines the impact and implications of 9/11 and the war on terror on United States culture and literature. He presents an interrogation of U.S. writing in a time of crisis, develops an arguement about literature and trauma, relates U.S. writing since 9/11 to crucial social and historical changes in the U.S. and elsewhere, and places U.S. writing in the context of the transformed position of the U.S. in a world characterized by political, economic, and military crisis; transnational drift; the resurgence of religious fundamentalism; and the apparent triumph of global capitalism.
