Reviews

This collection pushes the reader to think of migration experiences as a complex crossing of space and time. It offers analysed-in-depth and thought-provoking insights on migration narratives, applying the most relevant current theories of space and time. -- Mikhail Epstein, Emory University, USA Putting together studies of narratives told by migrants who hail from many different locations in Africa and the Arab world, the editors of this fascinating volume productively unsettle traditional understandings of the role of time and space in narrative, while opening our eyes on both the richness and the trauma that accompany migration experiences. -- Anna De Fina, Georgetown University, USA
