Synopsis

These essays explore literary and cultural representations of urban settings originating from the Island of Mozambique, Lisbon, Luanda, Macau, Maputo, Porto Alegre and São Paulo. They examine how memories and identities are framed, how people at the margins express resistance and how migration disrupts established social and cultural borders.
