Kalfopoulou's Athens and New York are twinned sites of perpetual dislocation, palimpsests of political, economic, cultural--and personal--crisis. The refugee, the immigrant, the fragmented 'I' charted in these essays--all are studies in exilic living, pilgrims wandering the wreckage of late capitalism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adrianne Kalfopoulou\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1597095370\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781597095372\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Red Hen Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/09\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/26\/2014","brand":"Adrianne Kalfopoulou","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44068725588223,"sku":"9781597095372","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_036d22bb-6c94-49c6-8017-44bda4dce9d5.jpg?v=1685420647","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ruin-adrianne-kalfopoulou-9781597095372","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
