Author Anisa Rahim will discuss her book, An American Meo: A Tale of Remembering and Forgetting (Spuyten Duyvil, 2023), a hybrid work of nonfiction, fiction, and myth that explores identity, heritage, and the weight of generational memory. Born in America but deeply rooted in the culture, history, lore, and generational trauma of the Meo people — Muslims from the Mewat region of India — Rahim takes readers on a riveting journey through family, history, and her own coming of age. An American Meo is an archival exploration that uncovers hidden stories of her family’s past alongside the broader history of a people, a region, a language, and a world on the verge of being forgotten.
