In terms of style and form, the Mahjar and second wave authors of Arab-American literature had typically focused on poetry[4] and autobiography.[2] The autobiographies generally narrated one of two recurrent stories: a journey of rising to success and wealth from nothing or narratives of romanticized communal upbringing. ./cache/en-wikipedia-org-7533.html ./txt/en-wikipedia-org-7533.txt
