Through an analysis of art and photography responding to the U.S. domestic response to 9/11, Iraq war fiction, representations of Abu Ghraib and Guantánamo Bay, and migrant fiction in the twenty-first century, Christopher W. Clark creates a queer archive of transcultural U.S. texts as a way of destabilizing heteronormativity and thinking about productive spaces of queer world-building. Drawing on the fields of transcultural memory, queer studies, and transculturalism, this book raises important questions of queer bodies and subjecthood. Clark traces their legacies through texts by Sinan Antoon, Mohamedou Ould Slahi among others, alongside film and photography that includes artists such as Nina Berman and Hasan Elahi. In all, the book queers forms of cultural memory and national identity to uncover the traces of injury but also spaces of regeneration. 410 0$aAmerican Literature Readings in the 21st Century,$x2634-5803 606 $aAmerica$xLiteratures 606 $aLiterature$xPhilosophy 606 $aFeminism and literature 606 $aQueer theory 606 $aEthnology$xAmerica 606 $aCulture 606 $aMotion pictures 606 $aTelevision broadcasting 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 606 $aNorth American Literature 606 $aFeminist Literary Theory 606 $aQueer Studies 606 $aAmerican Culture 606 $aFilm and Television Studies 606 $aVisual Culture 615 0$aAmerica$xLiteratures. 615 0$aLiterature$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aFeminism and literature. 615 0$aQueer theory. 615 0$aEthnology$xAmerica. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aMotion pictures. 615 0$aTelevision broadcasting. 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 615 14$aNorth American Literature. 615 24$aFeminist Literary Theory. 615 24$aQueer Studies. 615 24$aAmerican Culture. 615 24$aFilm and Television Studies. 615 24$aVisual Culture. 676 $a810.9 676 $a306 700 $aClark$b Christopher W$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0246074 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483481303321 996 $aQueering Memory and National Identity in Transcultural U.S. Literature and Culture$92834311 997 $aUNINA
