Movement and Belonging: Lines, Places, and Spaces of Travel

By: Leon, Carol E.

The uncertainties and newness that surround us today prompt radical questions about ourselves and our relationship with the external world. How do and can we belong to the places and spaces of today? Movement and Belonging: Lines, Places, and Spaces of Travel describes current realities and suggests ways in which you can define yourself in an ever-changing world. Using the travel writings of V. S. Naipaul, Michael Ondaatje, Patrick White, and D. H. Lawrence, Movement and Belonging demonstrates that authentic travel - embracing changing boundaries and cultures - enables you to create sites of belonging where you can find your sense of self.
