Essay from the year 2016 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 9/10, , course: Faculty of Letters, language: English, abstract: This essay analyses North America's foreign relations with the Middle East before and after the 9/11 attacks in Moshin Hamid's 'The Reluctant Fundamentalist'. This is inherently depicted in personal and professional relations. Namely, the plotline focuses on the life of Changez, a Pakistani immigrant that portrays an 'Islamic elite' dwelling in the US. Following the 9/11 attacks, a growing wave of Islamophobia will emerge, tearing apart Changez's accommodated American lifestyle. Much of this detriment is conveyed by means of Changez's relationship with other characters, especially with Erica (Changez's love interest), a troubled young woman. Erica's character is a symbol for the American nation.
