520 $a"This book traces the genealogy of 'women's fiction' in South Asia and looks at the interesting and fascinating world of fiction by Muslim women. It explores how Muslim women have contributed to the growth and development of genre fiction in South Asia, and brings into focus diverse genres including speculative, horror, young-adult, romance, graphic, dystopian amongst others, from the early 20th century to the present. The book debunks myths about stereotypical representations of South Asian Muslim women, and critically explores how they have located their sensibilities, body, religious/secular identities, emotions, and history, and have created a space of their own. It discusses themes such as Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain and Qurratulain Hyder's writings as genre fiction, Hijab Imtiaz Ali's romance fiction, early women Urdu novelists, Bangladeshi women authors, and the deployment of graphic stereotypes. A volume full of remarkable discoveries for the field of genre fiction, both in South Asia and for the wider world, this book in the Studies in Global Genre Fiction series, will be useful for scholars and researchers of English literary studies, South Asian literature, cultural studies, history, Islamic feminism, religious studies, gender and sexuality, sociology, translation studies, and comparative literatures"--$cProvided by publisher.
