Description
According to the critic George Steiner, a whole genre of the 20th century Western literature is extraterritorial, a literature by and about exile, symbolizing the age of refugees. In all likelihood, this genre will only continue to flourish in the 21th century and beyond. (1) Literature-in-exile and about exile has existed for a long time. What is different between the earlier and the exiles of our times is the seale: since the beginning of the twentieth century, our world has seen mass migrations and population shifts unseen before. As a result, many societies and cultures today are intermixed and literary theorists encounter issues they did not face before.
