Název v původním jazyce
The Enemy of My Enemy Is ... the Result of an Unsuccessful Assimilation Process
Popis výsledku v původním jazyce
The article examines the causes and consequences of a failed assimilation process as illustrated in Percival Everett's novel Watershed (1996) in which he features an African American hydrologist and a Native American little person who first become friends and then also partners in crime with a common goal to expose a conspiracy that had caused the anthrax poisoning of the local Native American reservation's water source. As the familial and social backgrounds of both the characters are gradually unveiled in the novel through the combination of the present event narrative and flashbacks from the past, the level of assimilation (or its failure) of the African American and Native American protagonists and their families is compared and evaluated.
