" Writing Migration Through the Body offers a compelling analysis of contemporary narratives of transnational migrations by way of an innovative focus upon embodied experience. By placing emphasis on agential corporeality, Bond examines the body as a "liminal, multi-faceted and generative space" which reroutes the bounded contours of the nation and conceives identity formation as "in-transit," intersubjective and transnational. The narratives of "migration and diaspora" inflect the Italian language through descriptions of spatial and temporal movements. While these various histories of migrant mobilities, including violent displacements, persist as bodily traces, Bond attends to the narrative capacities of the body to reinscribe these traces, and thereby access "new artistic and creative constellations of mobility." Engaging phenomenology, affect theory and mobility studies, Bond offers theoretically nuanced readings of migratory experiences as detailed through bodily inscription; trans-body subversions of gender binarism and "categories of home and belonging"; the transnational maternal body; surgical transformations; and the spectral body.
