In contrast to critics that consider Taïa to immigrate and integrate successfully to France as a writer and intellectual, Provencher and Bouamer argue that the author's writing is replete with elements of constant migration, "comings and goings," cruel optimism, flexible accumulation of language over borders, transnational filiations, and new forms of belonging and memory making across time and space. At the same time, his constantly evolving identity emerges in many non-places, defined as liminal and border narrative spaces where unexpected and transgressive new forms of transgressive filial belonging emerge without completely shedding shame, mourning, or melancholy.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 238mmItem Length: 161mmItem Width: 29mmItem Weight: 644gBook Series: After the Empire: The Francophone World and Postcolonial FranceRelease Year: 2021 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
