Summary |
"In a book, which in many ways itself narrates the contemporary Mediterranean, Claudia Esposito brings together a number of contemporary writers who trace their roots to the Maghreb and Mashreq and whose connections, so often drawn along the lines of nation and language, might otherwise be overlooked ... Esposito challenges the reader to look beyond the notions of identity, race and language fixed within the limits of the nation state"--Provided by publisher. |
