This research examines the complex interrelationship between landscape, loss, and memory as represented in selected American and Middle Eastern literary narratives. Through comparative textual analysis informed by postcolonial theory, ecocriticism, and trauma studies, the study investigates how authors from these distinct geographical and cultural contexts employ physical landscapes as repositories of collective and personal memory, particularly in the aftermath of displacement, conflict, and historical trauma. The analysis reveals that while American and Middle Eastern literatures emerge from different historical trajectories, they share profound concerns with the ways in which land becomes imbued with meaning, how its loss generates enduring psychic wounds, and how memory functions as both a site of mourning and resistance. By examining works including William Faulkner's Absalom, Absalom!, N. Scott Momaday's House Made of Dawn, Mahmoud Darwish's poetry, Ghassan Kanafani's Returning to Haifa, and Susan Abulhawa's Mornings in Jenin, this research demonstrates that landscape functions not merely as setting but as an active participant in the construction of identity, the preservation of cultural heritage, and the articulation of loss. The study concludes that literary representations of landscape offer crucial insights into the human experience of place, displacement, and the enduring power of memory to shape individual and collective consciousness across cultural boundaries.
