The book explores the profound impact and implications of the events of September 11, 2001, and the subsequent war on terror on American culture and literature. Richard Gray, recognized as a leading European scholar in American literature, delves into the widespread belief among writers and the public that they are living "after the fall" in the post-9/11 world. The analysis encompasses how many writers, confronted with what they perceive as the end of their world, have turned to the comforting ideals of home, hearth, and family. This retreat is often influenced by the seductive myth of American exceptionalism. In addition to examining the works shaped by these themes, Gray delves into writings that he believes "get it right." These are transnational and crossbred works that resist the simplistic "us and them" or "Christian and Muslim" language dominating mainstream commentary. Gray contends that these imaginative works choose to respond to the heterogeneous character of the United States and its positioning in a transnational context."After the Fall" thus offers illuminating insights into the relationships between nationalism, trauma, culture, and literature during a time of profound crisis. The book provides a nuanced exploration of how literature has grappled with and responded to the transformative events of 9/11 and the subsequent war on terror. Richard Gray's extensive scholarship in American literature adds depth and authority to this examination. 224 pages.
