Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. Well written flash fiction told from immigrants point of view their voices. ( )Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. NOTE: I won a free eBook copy of this book from LibraryThing's Early Reviewers (December 2021)."Short, Vigorous Roots" was my introduction not only to flash fiction, but also to many facets of the immigrant experience which I had not considered before. Each of the vignettes in this volume read and feel markedly different, with their narrators and protagonists hailing from all corners of the globe and across several generations of history. Some are refugees, some are migrants, some are naturalized citizens in their new home countries, and some remain strangers long after they've arrived. Yet so many of these stories relate how it feels to be caught in a liminal space between worlds, nations, cultures, and identities. Particularly poignant are the stories in Part One, "Past the Limits of the Familiar," as they detail the trials, tribulations, and anxieties that transnational people experience. Other stories in Part Four, namely "Disbelief" and "The Immaculate Heart of Mary," venture into the surreal. Overall, this short fiction collection is a worthwhile read for its fresh perspectives on contemporary human migration. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. A slim volume of short stories which speak to the immigrant experience. I liked how there were a variety of perspectives from recent immigrants as well as those who have come to call their new country home. I also appreciated the depth of locations which were represented. Recommend for anyone who wants to learn more about what it means to be an immigrant. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. I've never read any flash fiction before, but these are great! As a current grad student, mom and full time worker, I only have little snippets of time here and there to read. These were just the right length. I've already read about half of the book!Each story is a great dive into the complex issues and feelings of migrants. These stories definitely expanded my understanding and empathy for migrants. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. Really enjoyed the flash fiction. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
