- Summary:
- "An anthology comprising the best of contemporary fiction and nonfiction by South Asian American writers, to spotlight the literary work being produced by the South Asian diaspora in the American South. "The eight short stories and seven essays included in this anthology give us a glimpse of the diverse facets of South Asian experiences in the American South. These narratives do not necessarily weave a homogenous South Asian story in the American South, which is not the aim of this project, but create small, local narratives as windows to the world of transnational exchanges made possible by migrations of various kinds. They, like most all immigrant writing, expound a sense of being in two places but hardly entrenched in any one, the proverbial displacement.""--
