Abstract

The post-9/11 fiction is regarded as one of the indispensable parts of contemporary American literature. Prominent novelists such as Martin Amis, John Updike, and DON DELILLO have directly addressed the 9/11 terrorist events in their fiction. DeLillo’s novels, however, have been of especial interest to the literary circles due to their decades-long preoccupation with the issue of TERRORISM in its different forms. For instance, MAO II is particularly described to be the historical prescience and ANTICIPATION of the 9/11 attacks. In this article, the writers explore the re-inscription of the dominant discourse of NEO-ORIENTALISM in MAO II and make a comparison between some of the dominant accounts of the 9/11 event and what is being introduced as TERRORISM through the framework of Orientalist discourse within the novel. The objective is to expose the roots of the novel’s “anticipations” of the 9/11 and thereby de-mythologize the author’s status as a guru of terrorist novel.
