Abstract
Summary This paper attempts to indicate that Salman Rushdie creates a postcolonial discourse in Midnight's Children (1995) that seeks to replace the traditional structures of the nation and history with new constructs suitable to the conditions of the diaspora: a new condition of homelessness and lack of history. This is done through the creation of an anti‐mimetic method of writing that reveals the nation and its history as artificial entities.
