THEMA Modern and contemporary works (from 1900 onwards)
Synopsis Dos Nogales addresses migration in the context of the twenty-first century, responding to the need to reconsider the phenomenon in light of new forms of repression and global needs. Alongside accounts of migratory experiences—drawn from real informants—the book explores the question of the border: what it means for people to be separated by an arbitrary line that distinguishes “there” from “here,” becoming a nightmare for those who travel and a chimera for those who live there. Crossing points give rise to transformations that generate dynamism while also producing inequalities and multiple complexities. Written in a poetic register and contrasted with corrosive humor, the work seeks to understand the endless irregularities surrounding migration.
