This collection focuses on a variety of fictional and non-fictional
East European women's migration narratives, multimodal narratives
by migrant artists, and cyber narratives (blogs and personal
stories posted on forums). The book negotiates the concept of
narrative between conventional literary forms, digital discourses,
and the social sciences. It brings together new perspectives on
strategies of representation, trauma, dislocation, and gender
roles. It also claims a place for Eastern Europe on the map of
transnational feminism. (Series: Contributions to Transnational
Feminism - Vol. 4)
Monolingual, monolithic English is an issue of the past. In this
collection, by using cinema, poetry, art, and novels we demonstrate
that English has become the heteroglossic language of immigration -
Englishes of exile. By appropriating its plural form we pay respect
to all those who have been improving standard English, thus proving
that one may be born in a language as well as give birth to a
language or add to it one's own version. The story of the
immigrant, refugee, exile, expatriate is everybody's story, and
without migration, we could not evolve our human race.
