Rahman (comparative literature, U. of Montreal) takes a close look at Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish and the Algerian writer Assia Djebar and considers their work in the cultural context of the Arab world. Rahman finds that their approach to "home" comes from textual versions of heritage that have become historical, which include significant elements of dispossession and effacement that become sharper given nationalist and religious readings of the texts. Rahman works from assessments of the heritage and legacy of Abraham, comparing them to Djebar's Loin de Médine and Darwish's poetry on post-Beirut survival. Rahman then reconstructs the concept of "home" through language, again in Darwish's poetry and in Djebar's L'amour, la fantasia. The distinctions of diaspora with and without banishment and homelessness-within-home become clear. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
