Book Synopsis Capricious Worlds by : John Chr Knudsen

Download or read book Capricious Worlds written by John Chr Knudsen and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2005 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Capricious Worlds covers a period of 20 years of exile. Through the life journeys of Vietnamese refugees, the book presents a world rich in experience and wisdom, where the will to survive is complemented by the skills to do so. Individuals must learn to conquer systems that transform human beings into numbers, and men, women and children into de-personalized figures. The transformations render an unsettling peace that refugees struggle against, inspired by a search for recognition, a search not only for what is lost, but also for what might yet be. The book is about refugees en route to, and in, Norway. It also speaks to the challenges of being exiled in general: a reality for 40 million refugees and internally displaced persons worldwide.
