Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Claire Launchbury and Megan C. MacDonald’s edited collection of essays offers a series of comparative analyses of the literary and filmic texts, contexts, and crossings of the Mediterranean region. [...] The book immediately illustrates the breadth, depth, and interdependenc of what has become known as Mediterranean Studies. The collection expands the borders of the Medite rranean space, and posits it as a place of constant identitarian and linguistic interrogation for both those who occupy it and those who document it. [...] This collection will be a valuable resource for scholars who are looking for a contemporary and comprehensive entry point into Mediterranean Studies. [...] With its focus on transnationalisms, genre and border crossings, and complicated identities in the constantly reinvented and reinventing space of the Mediterranean, Launchbury and MacDonald’s collection offers a wealth of literary and cultural routes to follow.' Maria Vendetti, Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
