In the complex and multi-layered process of migration and
identity-building, classical migration theories and approaches of
transnationalism seem no longer able to grasp how belonging and
home are to be found in movement. This ethnography leads the reader
into the lives of five Jamaican women in Montreal; their daily
practices and experiences, their spaces of communion, their
memories and projections for the future. Lisa Johnson sheds light
on the mobile biographies and migratory agency of her interlocutors
by following the intricate mental and physical trajectories of
their deep-rooted yearning to return home.
