Rezensionen

"An illuminating and original study of the ways postmemory affect Euro-American ethnic identities. Fodor interviews ordinary people with extraordinary stories of resilience and strength. Her discussion and analysis reveal the complex ways individuals identify with their ethnic heritage over more than one generation."

Eleanor Ty, Professor of English, Wilfrid Laurier University

"[In conclusion] this book is an important attempt to trace migration stories through second and late generation European Americans that reminds us of the 'obligation to remember' and the 'fear of losing the fragile connection' to the past."

Narrative Inquiry

"Fodor's work has a pivotal place in critical minority studies, ethnographies of transnational families and diasporic communities and studies of cultural citizenship."
