Synopsis
A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press's Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. What does everyday life look like for young men who flee to Europe, survive, and are then assigned temporary housing? Hypersurveillance or parallel normality, irrelevance, or even nothingness? Based on four years of ethnographic research, Undoing Nothing recounts the untold story of Italian asylum seekers' struggles to produce relevance--that is, to carve out meaning, control, and direction from their legal and existential liminality. Their ways of inhabiting space and time rest on a deeply ambivalent position: together and alone, inside and outside, absent and present. Their racialized bodies dwell in their assigned residence while their selves inhabit a suspended translocal space of moral economies, nightmares, and furtive dreams. This book illuminates a distinctly modern form of purgatory, offering both a perceptive critique of state responses to the so-called refugee crisis and nuanced psychological portraits of a demographic rarely afforded narrative depth and grace.

- n***t (349)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThank you thank you thank you!!! So glad you had this for sale on eBay… a UK publication and impossible to find this where I live… great shipping time, and fantastic tracking too! And beautiful sturdy packaging… arrived in perfect condition! Thank you again! Can’t wait for the next one to be published!!!
- j***7 (8)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseTotal scam! Paid for Dungeon of the Mad Mage Premium Edition and after long, costly international shipping to South America, seller sent Trials of Tempus instead. No warning, no consent, no solution. If out of stock, they should’ve canceled or informed me, not ship random junk. Lost hundreds of dollars, weeks of waiting, and got stuck with something worthless to me. Dishonest, irresponsible, zero respect for customers. Avoid at all costs!
