Bringing together a variety of contemporary writers and filmmakers of Muslim heritage engaged in vindicating same-sex desire, the book approaches queer Muslims in the diaspora as figures forced to negotiate their identities according to the expectations of the West and of their migrant Muslim communities. The book examines 3 main themes: the depiction of queer desire across racial and national borders, the negotiation of Islamic femininities and masculinities, and the positioning of the queer Muslim self in time and place. This study will be of interest to scholars, as well as to advanced general readers and postgraduate students, interested in Muslims, queerness, diaspora and postcolonialism. It brings nuance and complexity to an often simplified and controversial topic.Multicultural textualities.Muslim gay peopleHomosexuality in literatureHomosexuality in motion picturesTwentieth Century LiteraturemupIslambicsscSOCIAL SCIENCE / Islamic StudiesbisachMuslim.diaspora.femininity.film.literature.masculinity.queer.same-sex desire.Muslim gay people.Homosexuality in literature.Homosexuality in motion pictures.Twentieth Century LiteratureIslamSOCIAL SCIENCE / Islamic Studies305.407Fernández Carbajal Alberto1103758UkMaJRUBOOK9910823992103321Queer Muslim diasporas in contemporary literature and film4062589UNINA03801nam 22006735 450 991025399650332120200702021103.03-319-57654-210.1007/978-3-319-57654-1(CKB)3710000001388800(DE-He213)978-3-319-57654-1(MiAaPQ)EBC4867921(PPN)201472848(EXLCZ)99371000000138880020170530d2017 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierImpacts of Tannery Operations on Guppy, Poecilia reticulata /by Pramod Baburao Rokade1st ed. 2017.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2017.1 online resource (XII, 45 p. 158 illus., 100 illus. in color.)
