Topologies of fear in contemporary fiction : the anxieties of post-nationalism and counter terrorism

"Unlike other studies which have focused mainly on the response to the 9/11 attacks in writing from the United States, Topologies of Fear in Contemporary Fiction is global and comparative in its approach.
