The Turkish Turn in Contemporary German Literature: Toward a New Critical Grammar of Migration (Book)
Title: The Turkish Turn in Contemporary German Literature: Toward a New Critical Grammar of Migration
Abstract: Challenging the commonplace that suspends migrants “between two worlds,” this study turns a refreshingly curious eye to complex cultural relations and literary novelties wrought by Turkish migration to Germany. At interpretive and historic crossroads involving dialogue and storytelling, genocide and taboo, and capital and labor in the 1990s, The Turkish Turn illuminates far-reaching imaginative effects that literatures of migration can engender.
