Abstract

Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas (2004) along with its film adaptation directed by the Wachowskis and Tom Tykwer (2012) showcase dispersed and diverse home spaces, and my analysis further demonstrates some of the ways in which the global scale section of my book works to synthesize the previous, “smaller” scales into a new totality—not a cliched “global village” but a continually globally “contaminated” notion of home that is increasingly porous, multifaceted, intrinsically multi-scalar, and constructed through the overlaps and boundary traversing conversations that illuminate new as well as old modes of home-making and belonging, not merely within a global economy but in a globally interconnected world of digital and physical migrations.
