Voices in Diaspora

Diaspora refers to the dispersion of a people from their native land; and often, there is a subjective emotional attachment whereas such feelings are determined by cultural identity. We see this illustrated in works by writers of various nationalities and cultures as they examine themes such as nostalgia, alienation, displacement, and resilience in the face of adversity.
