      ab: It provides an extensive discussion of US-American literature about children of immigrants comparing different ethnic groups and different literary and historical contexts. In fact, this monograph argues that as literary and cultural studies scholars we should talk a lot less about cultural identity and difference and a lot more about other important factors of identification and differentiation such as the ones listed above; factors that all appear in narratives about children of immigrants, but are mostly ignored. Consequently, this monograph provides a methodologically transdisciplinary and diachronically and synchronically comparative discussion of all in all several dozens of US-American literary texts about children of immigrants from the nineteenth century up to the twenty-first century.
