Trauma and multiplicity in Nieh's 'Mulberry and Peach'

Academic Article

Abstract

  • This essay addresses immigration, trauma, and psychosomatic pathology in Hualing Nieh's Mulberry and Peach. It resists a postmodern reading that would categorize Mulberry as a successful, bifurcated border crosser in an age of transnational^, and it draws a clear comparison and difference between Nieh's novel and Bharati Mukherjee's Jasmine
