By engaging with the cultural and historical contexts that inform these narratives, the study not only highlights the unique contributions of Matar and Aboulela to Anglophone Arab literature but also advances scholarly understanding of how literature can illuminate the lived realities of diaspora. Ultimately, this research contributes to the evolving field of diaspora studies by foregrounding the voices and perspectives of Arab writers, offering nuanced insights into the formation of identity, the persistence of memory, and the search for home in a transnational worldThis study offers a comprehensive exploration of the concept of diaspora as depicted in the works of two prominent Anglophone Arab novelists, Hisham Matar and Leila Aboulela.
