Teresa Pepe is Associate Professor in Arabic Studies at the University of Oslo. She is the author of the book Blogging From Egypt: Digital Literature, 2005-2016 (Edinburgh: EUP, 2019). Her recent work has focused on the recent rise of a dystopian novelistic genre in Arabic literature, highlighting the connection between the aesthetic of these novels and the political unfolding of the Arab Spring. She has recently edited a volume with Stephan Guth entitled Arabic Literature in the Posthuman Age (Harassowitz Verlag 2019), that examines the use of dystopia, necropolitics, monsters and satire in Arabic literature today.
