Introduction: Dislocation and Writing -- 2. Writing in Exile -- 3. Malouf?s An Imaginary Life -- 4. Parsipur?s Women Without Men and Iranian Diaspora Women?s Literature -- 5. Conclusion. 330 $aThis study aims to foreground key literary works in Persian and Australian culture that deal with the representation of exile and dislocation. Through cultural and literary analysis, Dislocation, Writing, and Identity in Australian and Persian Literature investigates the influence of dislocation on self-perception and the remaking of connections both through the act of writing and the attempt to transcend social conventions. Examining writing and identity in David Malouf?s An Imaginary Life (1978), Iranian Diaspora Literature, and Shahrnush Parsipur?s Women Without Men (1989/ Eng.1998), Hasti Abbasi provides a literary analysis of dislocation, with its social and psychological manifestations. Abbasi reveals how the exploration of exile/dislocation, as a narrative that needs to be investigated through imagination and meditation, provides a mechanism for creative writing practice. 606 $aLiterature    606 $aLiterature?History and criticism 606 $aCreative writing 606 $aPostcolonial/World Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/838000 606 $aLiterary History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/813000 606 $aCreative Writing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/826000 615 0$aLiterature   . 615 0$aLiterature?History and criticism. 615 0$aCreative writing. 615 14$aPostcolonial/World Literature. 615 24$aLiterary History. 615 24$aCreative Writing. 676 $a820.9994 700 $aAbbasi$b Hasti$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0964630 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300032303321 996 $aDislocation, Writing, and Identity in Australian and Persian Literature$92188569 997 $aUNINA
