The book provides a new way to understand the often unspoken, silenced history of the Asian diaspora experience in the U.S. as articulated in fiction, especially the experiences of suppressed ethnic women who are subordinated by the powers of a male-dominated mainstream American society.
In a global context where the speed and volume of migration have continuously increased, communicative failure shows up in cultural conflicts as thematized in Asian American womens literature. When the text surface suggests that migrant identity is flexibly hybrid, are there deeper textual layers? This book probes the limitations not only of the usual methods of literary study, but of Western constructions of the experience of loss and deprivation. Can literary interpretation gain from adapting new conceptualizations developed in the science-oriented field of intercultural communication studies? A critical negotiation concept opens unexpected analytical potential with far-reaching implications.
