Displacing Territory
Displacing Territory explores the core concepts of territory and belonging—and humanizes refugees in the process.

Making Sense of Contemporary British Muslim Novels

It argues that, for authors of Muslim heritage in Britain, writing the senses is often a double-edged act of protest. Some of the key authors excoriate a suppression or cover-up of non-heteronormativity and women’s rights that sometimes occurs in Muslim communities. Yet their protest is especially directed at secular culture’s ocularcentrism and at successive British governments’ efforts to surveil, control, and suppress Muslim bodies.
