Moving beyond simplistic portrayals, this book offers an exploration of contemporary Muslim identity through the lens of Kamila Shamsie, H.M. Naqvi, and Nafisa Haji. It provides valuable insights into the dynamic interplay between faith, culture, and post-colonial Muslim identity, offering a fresh perspective on the evolving discourse surrounding Islam in the 21st century. It examines how these Anglophone authors, writing from within the post-colonial context, grapple with the legacies of history and the complex realities of navigating cultural and religious divides. Articulating the multifaceted re-negotiatory experiences of Muslims in a globalized world, these authors' works illuminate themes of hybridity, migration, belonging, religious reinterpretations, and the search for self, while simultaneously fostering cross-cultural dialogue. This book is essential reading for scholars and anyone interested in post-colonial literature, Islamic studies, and South Asian culture.
