Reviews
<br> Kwan writes with a keen sensitivity to the micro-level kinesthetic forces of bodies in motion and the macro-level historical forces that shape place. The result is a series of nuanced and thoughtful readings of the politics of movement, location, and identity. --Anthea Kraut, Associate Professor, Department of Dance, University of California, Riverside <br><p><br> SanSan Kwan gracefully captures both the experiential dimensions and the larger significance of movement and dance. Her engaging study of choreography and urban space inspires us to think about Chinese identity in original, dynamic, and generative ways. --Josephine Lee, University of Minnesota <br><p><br> A fascinating portrayal of the texture of the Chinese city recounted from anovel standpoint, grounded both in an impeccable engagement with theory and a profoundly humane understanding of how the ordinary experience of the city is created. --Academia.edu<p><br>
