Adapting Shahrazad's Odyssey

The Female Wanderer and Storyteller in Victorian and Contemporary Middle Eastern Literature.

Through close analysis, the author illuminates three main concepts: travel as a metaphor for rewriting, the female wanderer as the reworked adaptation of Odysseus and Shahrazad, and the notion of adaptation as a metatextual travel between Victorian and contemporary, nostalgia and progress.
