Let me add to previous suggestions the following ones: Salih Tayeb., Mawsim al-Higra ila-sh-shamal: it has been translated into Italian, the English title could be something like "The season to migrate to the North", it is a male account of a return migration to Sudan but it is extremely interesting to see how concepts of movement and gender are linked. Kureishi, Hanif, The Buddha of Suburbs, Faber and Faber, 1990 >From a perspective that combines cultural anthropology, life histories and literature I think these books are interesting: Lee Barnes V. and Boddy Janice, Aman A Story of a Somali Girl Ghosh, Amitav, In an Antique Land Hope this helps ;-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Paola Schellenbaum, via Menabrea 29, I-20159 Milano tel: (+39)-2-6081279 e-mail: p.schellenbaum-AT-agora.stm.it --- from list postcolonial-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
