Liminal Fiction at the Edge of the Millennium: The Ends of Spanish Identity examines how diverse manifestations of otherness coalesce in the cultural response to shifting perceptions of identity in Spain as well as the broader context of globalization at the turn of the millennium. Engaging issues of historical memory, gender, sex, religion, nationalism, and immigration, this book argues that liminality becomes the defining motif in reaction to national and global developments that expand and expose the cracks within the construct of a unified Spanish identity.
