“Tseen Khoo offers a fascinating and insightful study of the politics and poetics of literary production by Asian-Australian and Asian-Canadian writers and image-makers. The comparative methodology, (including the contrasts made to the Asian-American context) usefully resituates debates about nationalism, cultural policies and diasporic histories away from narrow nationalist frameworks to afford a more global perspective.”
