Due to the large-scale global transformations of the 20th century migration literature has become a vibrant genre over the last decades. In these novels issues of transcultural identity and belonging naturally feature prominently. This study takes a closer look at the ways in which the idea of family informs processes of identity construction. It explores changing roles and meanings of the diasporic family as well as intergenerational family relations in a migration setting in order to identify the specific challenges problems and possibilities that arise in this context. This book builds on insights from different fields of family research (e.g. sociology psychology communication studies memory studies) to provide a conceptual framework for the investigation of synchronic and diachronic family constellations and connections. The approach developed in this study not only sheds new light on contemporary British migration literature but can also prove fruitful for analyses of families in literature more generally. By highlighting the relevance and multifaceted nature of doing family this study also offers new perspectives for transcultural memory studies.
