Abstract

Abstract M. G. Vassanji is a transcontinental storyteller whose seven novels, two short‐story collections and two nonfictional books connect diasporic Indian traditions with the geographies and histories of East Africa, the USA and Canada. His complex narratives revolve around multiple identities, displacement, memories, lost histories, and acts of adaptation and recovery. Vassanji's portrayals of the uncertainty of lives at the crossroads between different traditions, languages, and imaginaries have challenged a global readership to engage with the complex histories of double diaspora.
