Beyond the Nation deals with Third World women¿s literary and cinematic intervention in the gendered discourse of the nation through a multicultural feminist reading of Monica Ali¿s Brick Lane (2003), Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie¿s Purple Hibiscus (2004) and Marziyeh Meshkini¿s film The Day I Became a Woman (2000). The book argues for the texts¿ production of the discourse of post-gendered nationalism and glocal national identity through subverting the binary logic of nationalist/fundamentalist and imperialist discourses, and charting a synthesis between silence/ speech, private/public, feminine/feminist and local/global.
