"""The book … is a quintessential one in times of increasing hatred towards immigrants. This timely book will help the reader understand the intensity of immigration crises and the need for the growth of a humanitarian world than a world with borders."" -- T.S. Gangothri * Social Identities *"


""The book … is a quintessential one in times of increasing hatred towards immigrants. This timely book will help the reader understand the intensity of immigration crises and the need for the growth of a humanitarian world than a world with borders."" -- T.S. Gangothri * Social Identities * ""Michelle Castañeda’s book Disappearing Rooms... is a tour de force that clearly demonstrates how the study of cultural performance provides an indispensable tool for understanding social performances and everyday life. Castañeda diagnoses various institutions at the sites of their theatrical manipulations—the disappearing rooms in her title—to show how immigration law, the prison-industrial complex, and even sometimes immigration activists stage these institutional mise-en-scènes in ways that play into the (in)visibility of carceral power."" -- Jennifer Tyburczy * Theatre Journal *
