Imaginative Geographies and the Colonial: David Abrams’ Fobbit

: This study aims to uncover Western imaginative geographies and their colonial practices and implications in David Abrams' Fobbit (2012). It makes visible and contextualizes the invisible agonies of the colonized and revokes the colonial claims. Imaginative geographies refer to the ways in which other spaces, peoples and cultures are represented by the West as serving Western colonial designs and interests in the East. The colonial present indicates the active position of colonialism and its progressive existence in the Middle East
