520    "Exploring the works of such best-selling authors as Rabih
       Alameddine, Mohja Kahf, Laila Halaby, Diana Abu-Jaber, 
       Alicia Erian, and Randa Jarrar, Salaita highlights the 
       development of each author's writing and how each has 
       influenced Arab American fiction. He examines common 
       themes including the Israel-Palestine conflict, the 
       Lebanese Civil War of 1975-90, the representation and 
       practice of Islam in the United States, social issues such
       as gender and national identity in Arab cultures, and the 
       various identities that come with being Arab American. 
       Combining the accessibility of a primer with in-depth 
       critical analysis, Modern Arab American Fiction is 
       suitable for a broad audience, those unfamiliar with the 
       subject area, as well as scholars of the literature."
