This book opens a dialogue between discourses of security and hospitality in modern and contemporary literature and culture. Essays span domestic spaces and detention camps, the experience of migration and tourism, interpersonal exchanges, and cross-cultural interventions.

Via the key themes of uncertainty, domesticity, and transit, this volume defines a new interdisciplinary area of inquiry that resonates with interests in world literature, transnationalism, and cosmopolitanism.
