Description: Focusing on British novels about the Muslim immigrant experience published after 9/11, this text examines the promise as well as the limits of 'British Muslim' identity as a viable form of self-representation, and the challenges - particularly for women - of reconciling non-Western religious identity with the secular policies of Western states.
