Metaphor and Diaspora in Contemporary Writing de J. Sell

Metaphor and Diaspora in Contemporary Writing

Editat de J. Sell
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 ian 2012
Choose ten major contemporary diasporic writers (from Abdulrazak to Zadie), ask ten leading authorities to write about their use of metaphor, and this is the result: a timely reassertion of metaphor's unrivalled capacity to encompass sameness and difference and create understanding and empathy across boundaries of nationality, race and ethnicity.
