Abstract
- "Colonial Citizenship and Everyday Transnationalism: an Immigrant's Story" by Alexandria J. Innes is a valuable book that explores the colonial immigrant story of the author's grandfather, Nicholas Charalambou Kanaris, who left Cyprus and settled in the UK in 1954. Innes takes an International Relations approach to examine the politics of colonial migration, settlement, and identities. The book provides interesting insights into Cypriot emigrants and immigrant stories in the UK, offering analysis of her grandfather's narrative. While the book is well-structured and sophisticated in its analysis, there are some areas where the author could have been more critical and nuanced in her examination of historical records and interviews. Overall, this book is important for researchers interested in colonial migration and the experiences of Cypriot migrants in the UK. [Extracted from the article]
