Reviews

Stevenson's latest work on multilingualism in Berlin is a fascinating and enthralling account of five migrants' personal and linguistic histories situated within a particular building in the city. ... this book is a valuable addition to the field of language and migration, exemplifying linguistic ethnography in an innovative and effective novella style. I believe Stevenson's approach is a good example of a helpful method to capture a potentially sensitive topic. (Andre Joseph Theng, Language in Society, Vol. 47 (03), June, 2018)
