This collection pushes migration and the minor to the fore of literary anthropology. What happens when authors who thematize their “minority� background articulate notions of belonging, self, and society in literature? The contributors use “interface ethnography� and “fieldwork on foot� to analyze a broad selection of literature and processes of dialogic engagement. The chapters discuss German-speaking Herta Müller perpetual minority status in Romania; Bengali-Scottish Bashabi Fraser and the potentiality of poetry; vagrant pastoralism and “heritagization� in Puglia, Italy; the self-representation of European Muslims post 9/11 in Zeshan Shakar acclaimed Norwegian novel; the autobiographical narratives of Loveleen Rihel Brenna and the artist collective Queendom in Norway; the “immigrant� as a permanent guest in Spanish-language children literature; and Slovenian roots-searching in Argentina. This anthology examines the generative and transformative potentials of storytelling, while illustrating that literary anthropology is well equipped to examine the multiple contexts that literature engages.
