Publisher Description

As readers, we need to approach this literature [Arab-American] not with fixed expectations but in a spirit of open inquiry. As writers, our task is not only to claim and reshape the meanings of both "Arab" and "American," but also to explore an identity still in the process of being constructed--an identity which we are all, readers and writers alike, in the process of constructing. --Lisa Suhair Majaj, The Hyphenated Author
