With chapters focused on important American novelists including Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, Sherman Alexie, Edwidge Danticat and Junot Díaz, the book works to situate novels that explore ethnic identity in conversation with one another. From those intertextual conversations, it draws conclusions about how fiction functions as testimony and the ways that readers might work to ethically respond to the testimonial features of Multiculturalism in literatureMinorities in literatureEthnic groups in literatureElectronic books.Multiculturalism in literature.Minorities in literature.Ethnic groups in literature.809.93352Cox Sandra968859MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910460653603321An ethics of reading2201024UNINA
