Beskrivning
In the complex and multi-layered process of migration and identity-building, classical migration theories and approaches of transnationalism seem no longer able to grasp how belonging and home are to be found in movement. This ethnography leads the reader into the lives of five Jamaican women in Montreal; their daily practices and experiences, their spaces of communion, their memories and projections for the future. Lisa Johnson sheds light on the mobile biographies and migratory agency of her interlocutors by following the intricate mental and physical trajectories of their deep-rooted yearning to return home.

Mer information

Lisa Johnson is a retired reading teacher with Henrico County Public Schools. Originally from Chicago, Illinois, she has taught in the public school systems in Texas, Oklahoma and Virginia. Reading became her true love as she watched children excel in every area of learning, once they were able to integrate reading into their daily life. Imagination, creativity, and organization are all skills that are enhanced in a child by the power of reading. Besides these skills, it is thrilling when children realize reading is so much fun. Ms. Johnson has been a writer for decades, yet this is her first published book.
