Abstract
This article investigates phenomena such as ethnicity, gender and the Danish welfare state in contemporary Danish fiction by drawing on Sara Ahmeds concepts of ‘melancholic migrants’ and ‘unhappy diversity’. An underlying assumption is that migrant fiction is contributing to the construction of new, and more encompassing national identities.
