Abstract
This article makes use of Deleuze and Guattari’s concepts of deterritorialization and lines of flight, together with Aamir R. Mufti’s analysis of global literature in order to study the work of three Pakistani novelists, Nadeem Aslam, Mohsin Hamid, and Kamila Shamsie. Fragmentation, disjunction, and disorientation are the main forces at work in contemporary Pakistani fiction in English, whose founding metaphor is the image of partition, and an insistence of borders and their transgression.
