Unfastened examines literary works and films by Asian Americans and Asian Canadians that respond critically to globality—the condition in which traditional national, cultural, geographical, and economic boundaries have been—supposedly—surmounted.
Due to a digital rights issue, this open-access edition does not include the chapter “Coda: Rethinking the Hyphen,” which appeared after chapter 6 in the original print edition. To read this chapter, please consult the print book or make a request from your local interlibrary loan service.
