"Johanna Sellman draws our attention to a vital new development in contemporary Arabic literature, namely the work of Arab refugees, asylum seekers, and undocumented migrants in Europe. Convincingly arguing that twentieth-century paradigms for analyzing Arab-European encounters in Arabic literature are inadequate for understanding the speculative mode of this emergent corpus, Sellman develops a compelling new approach that builds on Viktor Shklovsky's notion of ""defamiliarization"". This is a significant contribution to scholarship on modern Arabic literature. --Wail S. Hassan, University of Illinois"
