Most American novels set in Germany and published after 1949 take place in West Germany and present it as a pars pro toto for all of Germany, apparently ignoring Germany s partition. However, just when the Wall that divided the two parts of Germany fell, Germany s partition and its repercussions moved into the focus of a number of American novelists. Situated within the realm of Transnational American Studies, this volume presents the first comprehensive study of the different renderings of Germany s partition, the Berlin Wall, and German reunification in American novels published before and after 1989. Covering Cold War spy and romance novels and post-Wall texts such as Jeffrey Eugenides Middlesex , Paul Beatty s Slumberland , and Anna Winger s This Must Be the Place , the volume analyzes how the novels construct the German and the American nation/s in terms of religion, sex/gender, race/ethnicity, history, exile, and home.
