Between Exoticism and Silence. A Comparison of First Generation Migrant Writing in Germany and the Netherlands

There is a striking difference between the first appearance of literature of (labor) migration in German and in Dutch culture. In Germany, first-generation labor migrant writing appeared in the early 1980s, whereas writers of migration background (mostly of the second generation) entered Dutch culture only in the mid-1990s. The emergence of migrant writing in the two countries is examined in their specific socio-political contexts and their effect on contemporary German and Dutch literature of migration.
