Music, Forced Migration and Emplacement: Sounds of Asylum Bristol

by Nicola de Martini Ugolotti

This book analyses the negotiation of place, belonging and uncertainty enacted by a group of 60 men and women seeking asylum who gathered weekly in a community space in Bristol, UK, to share songs, memories, laughter, and precariousness with other established and new city-dwellers.
