Praise for The Southern Discourse in Sinophone Literature: Moving Borders
"Cogently argued and theoretically textured, this path-breaking collection advances an incisive framework that pushes against the limits of Western-centric and China-centric conceptions of identity, marginality, hybridity, and global belonging. The Sinophone South coheres around a neglected terrain of geopolitical exclusion, upends dominant notions of cultural demarcation, and will forever redefine the literary gravitation of texts hailing from Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Australia, the Austronesian Pacific, Asian America, and beyond."
