Sommario/riassunto: This book examines the constantly changing global climate that includes vast numbers of individuals in transit including, but not limited to immigrants, expatriates, and exiles. The contemporary writer has a vital role to play in mapping out the identities and trajectories of nomadic individuals in today's globalizing world. The writers of this study are current, prolific writers whose writing showcases the relevancy of French language literature in global discussions about identity, place, and belonging.
