published: Arianna Dagnino’s Transcultural Writers and Novels in the Age of Global Mobility
Now published, Arianna’s book in which, in the context of transcultural writing, some of my work is written about with uncommon insight. From the book description: >> In Transcultural Writers and Novels in the Age of Global Mobility, Arianna Dagnino analyzes a new type of literature emerging from artists’ increased movement and cultural flows spawned by globalization.
