The essays in this collection could be called a cultural autobiography. At the time when the first of them was written, America was still looking primarily at the U.S.S.R. as the world power which might set the world ablaze. Then, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the rising suns of the South China coasts and the Pacific Rim cast their light across the world, and the many faces of Islam were often the images we saw on CNN. As the author travels through the beginning of the 21st century, he discovers that things never change as much as they stay the same. After each essay is a short bibliography, and a well-written Re-Vision as the author looks back on his journeys and puts them into a now perspective. But it is his description that most impresses. His ability to capture the essence of life in Turkey, India, or New York even if he is only a guest, a short-term guest at that. Here the power of words to tell a story, portray a picture, show a scene, brings with it a new level of joy and wonder that will send the reader on an exciting journey without the need to pack a bag and bring a change of clothes.

This riveting and utterly unique memoir chronicles the coming of age of Cynthia Shamash, an Iraqi Jew born in Baghdad in 1963. When she was eight, her family tried to escape Iraq over the Iranian border, but they were captured and jailed for five weeks. Upon release, they were returned to their home in Baghdad, where most of their belongings had been confiscated and the door of their home sealed with wax. They moved in with friends and applied for passports to spend a ten-day vacation in Istanbul, although they never intended to return. From Turkey, the family fled to Tel Aviv and then to Amsterdam, where Cynthia's father soon died of a heart attack. At the age of twelve, Sanuti (as her mother called her) was sent to London for schooling, where she lived in an Orthodox Jewish enclave with the chief rabbi and his family. At the end of the school year, she returned to Holland to navigate her teen years in a culture that was much more sexually liberal than the one she had been born into, or indeed the one she was experiencing among Orthodox Jews in London. Shortly after finishing her schooling as a dentist, Cynthia moved to the United States in an attempt to start over. This vivid, beautiful, and very funny memoir will appeal to readers intrigued by spirituality, tolerance, the personal ramifications of statelessness and exile, the clashes of cultures, and the future of Iraq and its Jews.

Wonder And Exile In The New World written by Alex Nava and has been published by Penn State Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2015-01-14 with Literary Criticism categories.
In Wonder and Exile in the New World, Alex Nava explores the border regions between wonder and exile, particularly in relation to the New World. It traces the preoccupation with the concept of wonder in the history of the Americas, beginning with the first European encounters, goes on to investigate later representations in the Baroque age, and ultimately enters the twentieth century with the emergence of so-called magical realism. In telling the story of wonder in the New World, Nava gives special attention to the part it played in the history of violence and exile, either as a force that supported and reinforced the Conquest or as a voice of resistance and decolonization. Focusing on the work of New World explorers, writers, and poets—and their literary descendants—Nava finds that wonder and exile have been two of the most significant metaphors within Latin American cultural, literary, and religious representations. Beginning with the period of the Conquest, especially with Cabeza de Vaca and Las Casas, continuing through the Baroque with Cervantes and Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, and moving into the twentieth century with Alejo Carpentier and Miguel Ángel Asturias, Nava produces a historical study of Latin American narrative in which religious and theological perspectives figure prominently.
