Exploring the concept of 'belonging,' this book delves into refugee settlement as a transnational experience, highlighting the significance of multiple identities through case studies in Australia, New Zealand, the US, Canada, and the UK. It examines the relationship between everyday experiences and extraordinary events like trauma and disasters, challenging the idea that meaningful settlement is confined to local contexts. The author aims to honor the complexities of refugees' lives, emphasizing the importance of understanding their full narratives beyond just their trauma stories.
