A Study of American Ethnic Anti-war Novels
About This Novel
This book conducts a comprehensive and in-depth study of the anti-war novels of contemporary American ethnic writers. It mainly explores from the perspective of postmodernist narrative theory how ethnic writers use juxtaposition, treatment, black humor and other techniques to criticize the wars launched and participated by the white American government and long for the spirit of world peace and freedom, such as the resistance and tenacity of the indigenous people against the white invasion. Strong survival; blacks and Asians' escape from war; Chicano lawyers fighting for justice for their own veterans and urban poor; Russians and Germans using black humor and science fiction to ridicule the absurdity of war; mixed-race youth's physical and mental trauma and trauma healing after the war; Chicano women exposing the hypocrisy of the U. S. Government through transnational love stories, etc. The anti-war novels written by ethnic American writers are poignant criticisms of the cruel wars of mankind and racial discrimination in the United States. The content of this book is novel and suitable for reading reference by teachers, graduate students, undergraduates and ethnic literature lovers in university liberal arts majors.
