Nazila Heidarzadegan's book \"The Middle Eastern American Theatre: Negation or Negotiation of Identity\" explores the process of negation or negotiation of identity in Middle Eastern American theatre. The book offers a Bhabhaian postcolonial reading through the analysis of three plays. The introduction of the book examines the relationship between postcolonialism and Middle Eastern American theatre. It also discusses topics such as Homi Bhabha's postcolonial theory, women and postcolonialism, Middle Eastern feminist perspectives, and the representation of the September 11th attacks. The plays Browntown, Nine Parts of Desire, and Ten Acrobats in an Amazing Leap of Faith are also analyzed in the book. The second chapter focuses on Bhabha's reading of postcolonial concepts in his work \"The Location of Culture\". It delves into concepts such as colonial power, stereotypes and fetishization, mimicry, hybridity, and the third space. This book will be a valuable resource for readers who seek to understand the impact of Middle Eastern American theatre on identity.
