| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aims to understand contemporary American fiction, including both U.S.- and foreign-born writers in English, as part of the wider phenomenon of “global” and “translated” fiction. Immigrant writers’ narratives often pay close attention to the dynamics of power between layers of narrative, for their act of writing itself is a cross-linguistic maneuver. U.S. writers, on the other hand, increasingly commit themselves to a fabulist style, in which one setting is described as always interchangeable with another; namely their style, though in a different form from immigrant writers, is based on the idea of translatability.
