Chapter 1 -- Mosaics and Ink Blots Gothic mothers in Arab women's writing -- Chapter 2 -- The Supernatural -- Chapter 3 -- Madness in the hall of mirrors -- Chapter 4 -- Time and Causal Collapse -- Chapter 5 -- Dislocated Spaces.

This book moves the field of study of Arab women's writing on from the Anglophone preoccupation with the "bravery" that it takes to put pen to paper, and instead focuses on what the pen actually does. This book shows that Arab women writers innovate and utilise Gothic forms to "live with the ghosts" of foremothers, who represent lost knowledges about violence and feminised heritage. Examining contemporary Arab women's writing from the 1970s to the present through the lens of world-literary systems and feminist theory, this book details aesthetic patterns between decades, nations, and authors. The works of canonical Arab feminist authors such as Nawal El Saadawi and Hanan Al-Shaykh are put in conversation with those of contemporary authors such as Adania Shibli, Joumana Haddad, and Mansoura Ez Eldin. These works are linked through their creative feminist theorisations of loss and living. Roxanne Douglas is an Assistant Professor at the Institute of Advanced Studies at the University of Warwick, UK, where she is the co-founder and leader of the Women in World-Literature project. Roxanne specialises in bringing together feminist theory and world-literature with genre. She has previously published with Hypatia, The Journal of World System's Research, Feminist Theory and the Journal for Postcolonial Writing.
