Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 1,7, University of Osnabrück (Institut für Anglistik / Amerikanistik), course: Contemporary Asian American Literature: Themes, Topics, Concerns, 22 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: "The inclusion of Indian American authors into the genre of Asian American literature is widely discussed and criticized.

However, either one of them reveals a different attitude towards their home country, uses a different language style and enjoys different success. (...)"
