This highly original book brings compelling narratives of migration
and social diversity vividly to life. At once a play script and an
outcome of ethnographic research, it is a rich resource for the
interpretation and representation of life in the multilingual city.
The book takes an inside view of a hidden space in the city: an
advice and advocacy service in a Chinese community centre. Here,
advisors translate and translanguage, making sense of the
bureaucratic world for clients who need help to access rights and
resources related to housing, employment, education, welfare
benefits, insurance, taxation, health and much more.
