Weird English
Evelyn Nien-Ming Ch’ien
Weird English explores experimental and unorthodox uses of English by multilingual writers traveling from the canonical works of Nabokov and Hong Kingston to the linguistic terrain of Junot Díaz and Arundhati Roy. Ch'ien shows how the collision of other languages with English invigorated and propelled the evolution of language.
