This is a book review of The Many Worlds of Anglophone Literature: Transcultural Engagements, Global Frictions (Bloomsbury Academic, 2025), edited by Silvia Anastasijevic, Magdalena Pfalzgraf, and Hanna Teichler. The collection examines how Anglophone literatures negotiate transcultural exchanges and global frictions in the context of shifting political, social, and aesthetic landscapes. Its essays engage diverse regions, genres, and theoretical approaches to trace how themes of migration, identity, and power intersect across literary traditions. By foregrounding tensions between the local and the global, the volume highlights both the challenges and the generative possibilities of transcultural literary encounters. This review assesses the book's contribution to postcolonial, world literary, and cultural studies scholarship.
