The literature and labor of Carlos Bulosan have found a provocative new home in Writer in Exile/Writer in Revolt edited by Jeffrey Arellano Cabusao. This 21st-century gathering of scholars, critics, and artists from the U.S. and the Philippines brings together incisive voices which span over sixty years of thought around Bulosan's transpacific commitment to art and social change. Deftly organized and thoughtful, this book will inspire artists and activists who seek to understand the tenuous strands of the social, political, and literary imaginations of artists such as Bulosan who straddle two centuries and two continents. Writer in Exile/Writer in Revolt is a rich, scholarly work that provides a contemporary context for re-imagining Carlos Bulosan, one of America's most iconic and revolutionary writers and thinkers., This valuable anthology defines the legacy of Carlos Bulosan in terms of his intersecting roles as migrant worker, activist, and writer - roles that informed his sense of historical responsibility to speak out against injustices facing fellow Filipino workers, immigrants, and all oppressed people and to articulate their vision for a new society. In the world today, Bulosan's enduring legacy connects to all concerned with social justice., "This remarkable anthology introduces Carlos Bulosan to 21st readers, and bares the need to remember the history of one's country as a way to know who you are as a person. Thanks to Jeffrey Arellano Cabusao, associate professor at Bryant University, for editing this volume that serves both as a primer of the work done by and about Bulosan within a span of nearly fifty years, and a prospectus for projects that an interested student, critic, and cultural historian undertakes. . . .The anthology is a repository of the collective memory of Bulosan, whose struggles mirror the plight of the Filipino people fighting tyranny and enduring the hardships of a capitalist system that enslaves them." -- Bulatlat "The literature and labor of Carlos Bulosan have found a provocative new home in Writer in Exile/Writer in Revolt edited by Jeffrey Arellano Cabusao.
