Author Richard Gray - widely regarded as the leading European scholar in American literature - reveals the widespread belief among novelists, dramatists, and poets - as well as the American public at large - that in the post-9\/11 world they are all somehow living \"after the fall.\" He carefully considers how many writers, faced with what they see as the end of their world, have retreated into the seductive pieties of home, hearth, and family; and how their works are informed by the equally seductive myth of American exceptionalism. As a counterbalance, Gray also discusses in depth the many writings that \"get it right\" - transnational and genuinely crossbred works that resist the oppositional and simplistic \"us and them\" \/ \"Christian and Muslim\" language that has dominated mainstream commentary. These imaginative works, Gray believes, choose instead to respond to the heterogeneous character of the United States, as well as its necessary positioning in a transnational context. \u003ci\u003eAfter the Fall\u003c\/i\u003e offers illuminating insights into the relationships of such issues as nationalism, trauma, culture, and literature during a time of profound crisis. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRICHARD GRAY\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Literature at the University of Essex and former Distinguished Visiting Professor at a number of universities in the United States.
