In the past decades, children of immigrants have drawn increased attention not only in press and media but also in a number of academic fields, among them sociology, history, and ethnology. Surprisingly, literary and cultural studies have been somewhat reluctant. While there is work on individual authors or, at the most, particular ethnic groups, comparative approaches are rare. This monograph aims to amend this. It provides an extensive discussion of U.S. literature about children of immigrants, comparing different ethnic groups and different literary and historical contexts.
