- Double-weighted statement
- This is the first monograph on Ying Chen to include all her prose published up until early 2020, comprising a large corpus of 13 books. The amount of analysis required of primary material was therefore substantial and protracted. Moreover, each chapter has a complex theoretical framework, involving interdisciplinary approaches going beyond the immediate field of Francophone Studies that were researched in depth: migration studies, political geography and cultural anthropology (chapter 1); unnatural narrative theory (chapter 2); monster theory and posthumanism (chapter 3). In addition to this extensive secondary research, cohering diverse perspectives into an overarching framework was a complex process.
