    XII: (BI-)cultural fissures and (dis-)similar identities in Leila Aboulela's elsewhere, home
    (Peter Lang AG, 2021) Töngür, A.N.
    In her collection of 13 stories, entitled Elsewhere, Home, Leila Aboulela sets out to explore nature of bicultural encounters of people of diverse locations and perspectives. Disparate characters populating her stories share a lot of similarities regarding their longing, aspirations, frustrations and anxieties in spite of the fact that their nationalities, geographies, cultural traits, faith and life styles differ. In her 13 stories, Leila Aboulela displays a multiplicity of characters including Sudanese people living in Britain, British people living in Sudan, a white Scottish Muslim convert marrying a Sudanese woman and a Sudanese woman flying to London for her husband in order to underline that interreligous, interracial, international, bicultural and marital bonds do not necessarily improve or confound people's lives. The aim of this study is to show that Aboulela's stories dissect how prejudices, clichés and presumptions complicate the lives of both people with similar identities and people from incongruent cultures. © Peter Lang AG 2021.
