Description

This academic monograph by Routledge provides a deep examination of mobility within Zimbabwean English-language fiction. The study focuses on the period spanning from the introduction of the Fast Track Land Reform Programme to the conclusion of the Mugabe era. Since 2000, Zimbabwe has faced significant political conflict and economic challenges, often described as the Zimbabwe Crisis. These events triggered massive levels of transnational out-migration. This book analyzes how these shifts are reflected in literary texts, covering both works produced locally and literature written by authors living in the diaspora. For students, researchers, and academics in the fields of anthropology, sociology, and African studies, this text offers a necessary look at how migration and displacement shape modern storytelling. It provides a clear look at the relationship between socio-political instability and the rise of migration-themed literature in the region.
