Jewish Fantasy Worldwide: Trends in Speculative Stories from Australia to Chile reaches beyond American fiction to reveal a spectrum of Jewish fantasy. The essays in this collection cover speculative works by Jewish artists and about Jewish characters from a broad range of national contexts, including post-Holocaust Europe, the Soviet Union, Chile, French Canada, and the Middle East. The authors consider various media including fiction, film, Youtube videos, and fan sites. For scholars and fans alike, this collection of essays will provide new perspectives on Jewish presences in speculative fiction around the world.
These elucidations map out the true limits of the Jewish diaspora, which are also the limits of our imagination.
