Sara Faradji

Sara Faradji is a Lecturer in the Department of English at the University of Maryland, affiliated with the College of Arts and Humanities. Her research focuses on 20th-century postcolonial literature, globalization, transnationalism, and the African diaspora, with particular attention to Middle Eastern literary works. She explores themes like double-consciousness, migrant assimilation, and gender subjugation in her analysis of postcolonial narratives.

Her notable publication Journeys to the Middle (2016) interrogates how Middle Eastern literary characters challenge global perceptions of the region through postcolonial frameworks. Though no awards or grants are explicitly mentioned, her work contributes to redefining cultural and geopolitical narratives in literary studies.
