"WRITING ACROSS WORLDS explores an extraordinary range of migration literatures, from letters and diaries to journalistic articles, autobiographies and fiction in order to analyse the reality of the migrant's experience. The sheer range of writings-Irish, Friulian, Italian, Jewish and South Asian, British, Gastarbeiter litera ture from Germany, pied-noir, French-Algerian and French West Indian Writing, Caribbean novels, Slovene emigrant texts, Japanese-Canadian writing, migration in American novels, narratives from Australia, South Africa, Samoa and elsewhere-illustrate the diversity of global migratory experience and emphasise the social context of literature. The geographic and literary range of WRITING ACROSS WORLDS makes this collection an invaluable analysis of migration, giving voice to the hope, pain, nostalgia and triumph of lives lived in other places." This book has 284 pages. The text contains NO internal marks whatsoever. Overall, this is a FINE copy of this VERY SCARCE title. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
