PhD Candidate Publishes Article on Abbas Khider



PhD Candidate Sabine Zimmermann published the article “Refuge and Refuse: Waste Imagery in Abbas Khider’s Die Orangen des Präsidenten and Ohrfeige” in Abbas Khider. Eds. David N. Coury and Karolin Machtans. Peter Lang Oxford, 2021.Contemporary German Writers and Filmmakers, vol. 5, pp. 113-131.

From Abbas Khider summary: “This volume represents the first collection of essays devoted to Khider’s works to date. The contributions analyse his narrative works and probe important questions relating to political, cultural, and linguistic identity in Germany today. While his works explore what it means to be an immigrant, they do so with a wry sense of humour and an insight into the human condition that also reflect on the political situation in Germany today.”
