Reviews

Edwards's nuanced approach avoids 'white reading', offering parallel interpretations which acknowledge those readers who share the author's multilingualism... the decolonizing ambition of this work should be praised and is, for the most part, highly successful. Edwards's conclusion powerfully captures the importance of translanguaging in an increasingly plurilingual and mobile world; moreover, it is a practice which is intersectional in its scope and interdisciplinary in its application, thus perhaps hailing a new paradigm for women's lifewriting research. - Jasmine Cooper, Newnham College, Cambridge
