Focusing on the interactions of immigrants in an Irish asylum reception center, the book showcases their resourcefulness in overcoming language and cultural barriers. Through three years of ethnographic observation, it employs a unique combination of corpus linguistics, ethnography, and conversation analysis to provide insights into communication challenges faced by this closed community. The innovative methodologies used reveal the dynamics of social interaction and adaptation in a multicultural context.
