Reviews

In this engaging book, Paolo Boccagni asks about the meaning of home for people who have decided to leave their previous home and settle in a new place. ... Boccagni's book is a great and important read on the migration-home nexus. It will be of high interest to students and scholars alike who work on migration, home and transnationalism. (Christine Barwick, Journal of Housing and the Built Environment, Vol. 34, 2019)
