{"product_id":"out-of-the-ussr-eva-hausbacher-9783111388953","title":"Out of the USSR: Travelling Women - Travelling Memories","description":"\u003cp\u003e This book examines how women authors recall their own and their families' past lives after having emigrated from the Soviet Union in the 1990s, and how they reflect on their new country of residence, be it Germany, Austria, Israel, USA, or Finland, among others. The chapters connect migration, memory, and gender studies to analyse literary presentations created by these \"travelling\" women. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e The aim of the book is to pay attention both to women's contribution to cultural transfer, and to the mobility of memories: for the first time, it brings women's narratives as a form and tool to work through both individual and collective traumas to the forefront, remedying a long-standing omission in Russian and post-Soviet migration history. At the same time, the volume looks at \"travelling\" memories and cultural traumas from a gendered perspective: what happens when the recollections of women's traumatic experiences of Soviet history travel through time and space? \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e As this volume argues, narratives by women who left the Soviet Union often call into question official accounts of Soviet history, and rewrite them in a way that makes room for gendered lived experience. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eva Hausbacher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3111388956\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783111388953\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e de Gruyter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/04\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 366\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Eva Hausbacher","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46825943564543,"sku":"9783111388953","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0550c84b-0c97-40e3-af17-faf0e8cd38eb.jpg?v=1746074097","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/out-of-the-ussr-eva-hausbacher-9783111388953","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
