Transmodern Literatures in the 21st Century: Of(f) Limits offers an in-depth look into how transmodern literatures in English of the last two decades have been dealing with the phenomenon of the limit. The fifteen chapters that make up the volume examine how geographical, racial, ethnical, sociocultural, generical, ontological, epistemological and other limits are articulated, transgressed and reconfigured in recent narratives by authors writing in a wide variety of transmodern trends such as Afro- and Africanfuturism, Young Adult feminist science fiction, food fiction, air travel fiction, the networked novel and future narratives amongst others. They thereby expose and challenge hierarchised binary dichotomies as Euro- and Anthropocentric exclusionary discursive constructs that have kept non-hegemonic voices off limits. To counter the detrimental effects of the neoliberal grand narrative of globalisation, the chapters as well as the narratives of the limit they analyse emphasise an urgent need for inclusiveness, relationality and communality.
