Money and War: An American Conversation-Ayad Akhtar, Faisal Devji, Sadia Abbas

Money and War: An American Conversation

Pulitzer Prize-winning author Ayad Akhtar,  historian of India Faisal Devji,  and  Sadia Abbas spoke at Princeton as part of the Spenser Trask public lecture series  about  Akhtar’s much celebrated Homeland Elegies as a new kind of American novel, neither  properly  diasporic nor comfortably  postcolonial, a 9/11 novel without being about 9/11, and a major work of fiction about the Trump presidency and its prehistory.
