Beschreibung:
In this book Yasmin Hussain uses ideas of cultural hybridity, diaspora and identity to explore cultural production by British South Asian women including Monica Ali, Meera Syal and Gurinder Chadha. Hussain provides a sociological analysis of the contexts and experiences of the British South Asian community, discussing key concerns that emerge within the work of this new generation of women writers and which express more widespread debates within the community. In particular these authors address issues of individual and group identity and the ways in which these are affected by ethnicity and gender.
Contents: Introduction; Identity and gender across generations of British South Asians; Black British feminism and the birth of South Asian women's writing; The new woman in South Asian and diasporic literature; Bhaji on the Beach and Bend It Like Beckham: Gurinder Chadha and the 'Desification' of British cinema; Brick Lane: gender and migration; Childhood in Anita and Me; Conclusion; Bibliography; Index.
