The Borders Between and Within: Writing America With No Bounds gathers an international array of scholars to explore how Asian American literature, music, and visual culture challenge fixed notions of identity, nationhood, and belonging. Reflecting a broad spectrum of disciplinary approaches, the volume opens with original poetry by Shirley Geok-lin Lim and concludes with a resonant reflection by Maxine Hong Kingston. Contributors engage the works of authors and artists such as Ocean Vuong, Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, Toshio Mori, Sokunthary Svay, Monica Sok, C Pam Zhang, Hyeonseo Lee, Yeonmi Park, Velina Hasu Houston, Esmé Weijun Wang, Anthony Shim, Fiona Roan and Coco Lee, demonstrating how Asian American narratives cross both external and internal borders. Through various themes, such as memory, resilience, return, and hybridity, the essays show how creative expression offers new ways of imagining community across shifting global landscapes.Nicoleta Alexoae-Zagni is Associate Professor at Paris 8 University France.
