Transnational Women's Fiction interprets recent fiction by women writers from six homelands and finds that their invented homes reflect private forms of public exclusions and oppressions. The novels ground their action in houses that stand for the nation, each linked to damaging legacies of imperial domination. In novels written in English and published in Australia, Canada, India, Nigeria, Puerto Rico and the United States between 1995 and 2005, the writers use fictional homes to criticize and effectively unsettle home and homeland. Drawing together feminist and postcolonial theories, Susan Strehle links domestic practices and imperial projects. She advances a new view of home and homeland as intertwined, hierarchical spaces exploiting people of unprivileged gender, race, class, religion and ethnicity. Close readings of the six novels engage transnational women's fiction that unsettles home and dispels the sentimental narrative of homeland. In crossing traditional disciplinary boundaries, this book attempts to unsettle and renew.
