Innovative and provocative, this book is about the desires, intimacies, and power relations that at once inform and reflect transnational migration and the diasporization of urban space.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jenny Burman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0774817364\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780774817363\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of British Columbia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Jenny Burman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48438003466495,"sku":"9780774817363","price":35.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e60b6cd6-05fb-4dc2-ab36-3ee95503ac75.jpg?v=1777168139","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/transnational-yearnings-jenny-burman-9780774817363","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
