By weaving visual techniques within their narratives (photography, comics, cartography) authors Aleksandar Hemon, G.B. Tran, Junot Díaz, Boris Fishman and Vikram Chandra convey a surplus of perspectives and gesture towards alternative spaces, spatial in-between-ness and transnational space. 410 0$aCosterus New Series$v224. 606 $aAmerican fiction$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aAmerican fiction$y21st century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aAmerican literature$xMinority authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aSpace and time in literature 606 $aLiminality in literature 606 $aLiterature and society$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aLiterature and society$zUnited States$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aAmerican literature$xMinority authors$2fast 606 $aImmigrants' writings, American$2fast 606 $aSpace in literature$2fast 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$2fast 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAmerican fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aAmerican fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aAmerican literature$xMinority authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aSpace and time in literature. 615 0$aLiminality in literature. 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 615 7$aAmerican literature$xMinority authors. 615 7$aImmigrants' writings, American. 615 7$aSpace in literature. 676 $a813.5409 700 $aWeiner$b Sonia$0953597 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910479857903321 996 $aAmerican migrant fictions$92156158 997 $aUNINA
